:00:09. > :00:11.This is Breakfast, with Naga Munchetty and Jon Kay.

:00:12. > :00:14.Theresa May insists she's not a quitter and vows to fight

:00:15. > :00:17.the next General Election.

:00:18. > :00:19.The Prime Minister dismissed reports that she will stand down

:00:20. > :00:45.It's 20 years since the death of Princess Diana.

:00:46. > :00:50.Flowers are again being laid outside Kensington Palace.

:00:51. > :00:53.Parents in England have until midnight to register for 30

:00:54. > :00:56.hours of free childcare for three and four year olds,

:00:57. > :00:58.but some nurseries warn that they'll struggle to cope.

:00:59. > :01:03.Luxury car maker, Aston Martin, has just announced a ?500 million

:01:04. > :01:05.package of trade and investment with Japan.

:01:06. > :01:09.It's one of the most eye catching deals to come out of a three-day

:01:10. > :01:11.trip to the country by the Prime Minister.

:01:12. > :01:14.In sport, it's transfer deadline day.

:01:15. > :01:17.And an early deal should see confirmation of Alex

:01:18. > :01:18.Oxlade-Chamberlain's move from Arsenal to Liverpool.

:01:19. > :01:28.Good morning. It is a bright start for many. Chilly as well. Show is in

:01:29. > :01:31.the west. Through the day, they will develop widely. -- showers. I will

:01:32. > :01:35.have more in 15 minutes. Theresa May says she wants to lead

:01:36. > :01:41.the Conservatives into the next General Election saying she's in it

:01:42. > :01:44."for the long-term." The Foreign Secretary,

:01:45. > :01:46.Boris Johnson, has given his support, but backbench Conservative

:01:47. > :01:48.MPs have told the BBC they're sceptical she'll be able

:01:49. > :01:51.to serve the full term. The Prime Minister is currently

:01:52. > :01:59.on a three-day trip to Japan. There has been an awful lot of

:02:00. > :02:06.speculation about my future which has no basis whatsoever in it. I am

:02:07. > :02:13.in this for the long-term. There is a real job to be done in the United

:02:14. > :02:16.Kingdom. It is about getting Brexit done right and getting a proper

:02:17. > :02:20.partnership with the EU for the future. It is also about getting

:02:21. > :02:26.global Britain and trading around the world and dealing with injustice

:02:27. > :02:32.within the UK but also going out and around the world, making sure we can

:02:33. > :02:35.do those trade deals which ring prosperity to our economy and bring

:02:36. > :02:36.jobs to the United Kingdom. -- bring.

:02:37. > :02:52.He joins us live on Breakfast. We have heard so much speculation over

:02:53. > :02:56.the summer. Is Theresa May ending it or is this starting it again? Good

:02:57. > :03:02.morning. She is here on the second day of her three-day visit to Japan,

:03:03. > :03:07.a visit ostensibly about trade. She is talking about the possibilities

:03:08. > :03:11.for Britain after Brexit. She has decided to use this moment after her

:03:12. > :03:16.summer holidays three months on from the botched general election to

:03:17. > :03:20.settle for good, for now, at least, this issue around her leadership. It

:03:21. > :03:26.is a change of tone from the Prime Minister. You'll remember after the

:03:27. > :03:32.election she talks to Tory MPs saying she will continue as long as

:03:33. > :03:36.they want her. Now she says she is in it for the long-term and will

:03:37. > :03:40.fight for the Tories in the next election. When asked the question

:03:41. > :03:44.she could not say anything but that. To say she would only be doing it

:03:45. > :03:49.for the short-term would immediately make her a lame-duck Prime Minister.

:03:50. > :03:55.There is no great leadership challenge brewing at the moment. I

:03:56. > :04:01.think many Tory MPs will welcome this. They will be happy she will be

:04:02. > :04:07.there leading them through Brexit. By there are those, including Nicky

:04:08. > :04:13.Morgan, who say they are doubtful in reality she will still be there in

:04:14. > :04:19.2022. But a punchy and significant change of tone from the Prime

:04:20. > :04:20.Minister. Thank you, joining us from Tokyo.

:04:21. > :04:23.The brother of the Manchester Arena bomber will go on trial in Libya

:04:24. > :04:26.in the next two months, in connection with the attack

:04:27. > :04:31.Hashem Abedi was arrested in Libya shortly after the bombing in May,

:04:32. > :04:35.The prosecutor in the case said their father has been released.

:04:36. > :04:38.The first treatment to redesign a patient's own immune system

:04:39. > :04:41.so that it attacks cancer has been approved in the United States.

:04:42. > :04:45.The drug is made by extracting white blood cells from the patient,

:04:46. > :04:47.which are then genetically reprogrammed to seek out

:04:48. > :04:51.The US Food and Drug Administration said the decision was an historic

:04:52. > :05:00.moment and medicine is now "entering a new frontier."

:05:01. > :05:03.20 years ago today, Diana, Princess of Wales, died in a car

:05:04. > :05:05.crash in Paris after being pursued by photographers.

:05:06. > :05:08.Princes William and Harry will mark the anniversary privately

:05:09. > :05:10.but members of the public are expected to gather outside

:05:11. > :05:14.Our correspondent, Mark Lobel, is there for us this morning.

:05:15. > :05:21.Mark, people have already started laying flowers there haven't they?

:05:22. > :05:33.Good morning. Already tributes are being paid 20 years on. That is

:05:34. > :05:35.correct. As the sad news of her death reverberated around the

:05:36. > :05:40.country 20 years ago, Kensington Palace became a focal point at that

:05:41. > :05:44.time. 20 years on, it has happened again. People are writing this

:05:45. > :05:52.morning to pay respects. A cake has been brought. A portrait has been

:05:53. > :05:57.made. We had a look at some of the things put up on the board,

:05:58. > :06:06.including this photomontage brought in by Maria from Newcastle. Why did

:06:07. > :06:14.you bring it? I wanted to make a special montage for the 20th

:06:15. > :06:23.anniversary. I just make quite a few. This one made William and Harry

:06:24. > :06:30.chuckle because of the picture of William in shades. Have you ever met

:06:31. > :06:34.Princess Diana? I never did. But I followed her from when she first

:06:35. > :06:38.came on the scene until she died. Why did you think it was necessary

:06:39. > :06:49.to put these voters together? She was a truly remarkable lady and she

:06:50. > :06:57.will never be forgotten. -- photos. William and Harry met with the

:06:58. > :07:04.famous charities she used to meet with, aids charities, for example.

:07:05. > :07:08.They also opened the White Garden. They will spend the rest of the day

:07:09. > :07:10.privately remembering their mother, they said. Thank you so much.

:07:11. > :07:12.And after 7am, we'll be speaking to former Welsh Guardsman,

:07:13. > :07:15.Phil Bartlett, who was a pallbearer at Princess Diana's funeral.

:07:16. > :07:19.Today's the deadline for working parents of three and four year olds

:07:20. > :07:22.in England to apply for 30 hours of free childcare a week.

:07:23. > :07:24.The system will come into effect tomorrow,

:07:25. > :07:26.however, a new survey by the Pre-school Learning Alliance

:07:27. > :07:28.suggests most nurseries think there's a funding shortfall.

:07:29. > :07:31.The government says pilot schemes have shown that nurseries

:07:32. > :07:33.are willing and able to provide extra hours.

:07:34. > :07:43.Our Midlands correspondent, Sima Kotecha, reports.

:07:44. > :07:49.30 hours of free childcare a week for three-year-olds

:07:50. > :07:58.It makes you feel more empowered to actually ago and work full-time

:07:59. > :08:00.because you have got the help from the government

:08:01. > :08:04.It would actually be beneficial to parents that are trying to go

:08:05. > :08:11.just so that we can work, and it is not such a financial

:08:12. > :08:14.Tens of thousands of parents are entitled to this childcare,

:08:15. > :08:17.which is double the number of hours they used to get.

:08:18. > :08:27.But some parents have told us that ever since they have been able

:08:28. > :08:30.to sign up to the scheme, there have been problems.

:08:31. > :08:33.At one point its website wasn't working properly and that stopped

:08:34. > :08:35.parents from receiving a code which is needed

:08:36. > :08:39.There have also been concerns about our nurseries will pay

:08:40. > :08:42.for the service, with some saying the money that ministers

:08:43. > :08:46.Here they say that they are struggling to stay afloat.

:08:47. > :08:49.We can't afford to offer any totally free 30 hours childcare places.

:08:50. > :08:52.What we can do is offer the subsidised elements and ram

:08:53. > :08:55.that up with charging for meals and the extras that we provide

:08:56. > :09:00.here like French and drama and yoga and all the rest of it.

:09:01. > :09:03.The government says the policy's already having a positive

:09:04. > :09:06.impact in the areas that have trialled it since last year,

:09:07. > :09:09.and that independent analysis shows most providers were both willing

:09:10. > :09:11.and able to offer the extra hours.

:09:12. > :09:16.But a survey out today suggests 40% of nurseries are worried

:09:17. > :09:19.they'll have to close down, because the cash they're given,

:09:20. > :09:23.they say, isn't enough to keep them in business.

:09:24. > :09:27.The Governor of Texas has warned the amount of federal government aid

:09:28. > :09:29.it will need in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey,

:09:30. > :09:33.is likely to be far in excess of the more than $100 billion made

:09:34. > :09:35.available after the storm which devastated New Orleans

:09:36. > :09:39.At least 25 people have been killed in the aftermath of the storm.

:09:40. > :09:41.Pipelines and fuel production has closed.

:09:42. > :09:44.And overnight, the owners of a flooded chemical plant say

:09:45. > :09:48.Our correspondent, James Cook, is following developments from

:09:49. > :10:03.We are now in the skies above Houston. Lots of these floodwaters

:10:04. > :10:10.have receded very rapidly, especially in the downtown area. But

:10:11. > :10:14.other parts of the city are still very badly affected. Tens of

:10:15. > :10:19.thousands of homes have been damaged, possibly around 50,000

:10:20. > :10:23.homes, damaged by this flooding. And we have seen these two reservoirs,

:10:24. > :10:28.the water has been spilling over these reservoirs. We watched as

:10:29. > :10:32.thousands of people were evacuated from that place alone. That was a

:10:33. > :10:37.very well co-ordinated rescue operation. Are lots of other rescues

:10:38. > :10:46.have been taking place up here in the sky, with helicopters flying

:10:47. > :10:48.dangerous and daring missions to get people to safety. -- and lots.

:10:49. > :10:52.The NHS in England has issued new guidance for the victims of acid

:10:53. > :10:54.attacks after the number of patients needing specialist care doubled

:10:55. > :10:58.The advice is to report the attack, remove contaminated clothing,

:10:59. > :11:01.Surgeons say quick treatment is vital in minimising

:11:02. > :11:10.A law banning so-called legal highs in the UK is to be reviewed

:11:11. > :11:13.by the Crown Prosecution Service, after the collapse of the first ever

:11:14. > :11:15.contested cases under the new legislation.

:11:16. > :11:18.Two separate trials of people accused of intending to supply

:11:19. > :11:20.nitrous oxide, more commonly known as "laughing gas," at music

:11:21. > :11:23.festivals were stopped after the courts heard the drug

:11:24. > :11:25.is exempt because it is used as a medicinal product.

:11:26. > :11:28.The drug charity, Release, claims the new law is "fundamentally

:11:29. > :11:38.A man in Toronto has caused quite a buzz after attempting to break

:11:39. > :11:41.the world record for the longest time an individual has

:11:42. > :11:47.had their head fully covered in bees.

:11:48. > :11:55.What possesses someone to do this? I think his head needs examining.

:11:56. > :11:59.Juan Carlos Ortiz sat for 61 minutes in a sealed dome as more

:12:00. > :12:02.than 100,000 bees crawled over his face and neck.

:12:03. > :12:04.He broke the current record of 53 minutes and 34 seconds

:12:05. > :12:18.How many bee stings do you think he got? He looks all right. But surely

:12:19. > :12:26.he got a few. I would rather him than me. Horrible. Could you do it?

:12:27. > :12:34.Bees are lovely. Would you have hundreds of thousands on your head?

:12:35. > :12:45.Not at all. And that box would make me claustrophobic. "No" is the easy

:12:46. > :12:48.answer to that. I would rather look over the detailed contract of

:12:49. > :13:00.Premier League football. In fact, that is what I am doing. We will

:13:01. > :13:09.talk about Alex Oxley Chamberlain. It was not the best diet for them.

:13:10. > :13:11.-- start. They had some complaints. They are ending that if this deal

:13:12. > :13:13.goes through. More than a billion pounds has been

:13:14. > :13:17.spent already and we're expecting millions more to change hands

:13:18. > :13:20.on the last day of football's One deal that looks set

:13:21. > :13:23.to be completed is Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's ?40 million

:13:24. > :13:39.move from Arsenal to Liverpool. Maria Sharapova is through to the

:13:40. > :13:42.second round of the US Open. She came from a set down to win.

:13:43. > :13:46.An angry and frustrated Nick Kyrgios lost his first round tie to fellow

:13:50. > :14:04.Chris Froome has taken a big step towards winning the Vuelta a Espana

:14:05. > :14:08.title as he opened up a big lead on the field after coming second

:14:09. > :14:12.Froome is aiming to become only the third man to win the Tour de

:14:13. > :14:17.He now leads by one minute and 19 seconds.

:14:18. > :14:23.In just a few minutes I will bring you the back pages. They are full of

:14:24. > :14:31.what might happen through the day. What move might start another move?

:14:32. > :14:38.It starts tonight. It is the same issue as changing houses. You move

:14:39. > :14:44.and then you regret it. We will talk to someone later in the programme. I

:14:45. > :14:48.can't even believe he has time to talk to us. He did a deal eight

:14:49. > :14:51.seconds before the deadline. Here's Carol with a look

:14:52. > :15:07.at this morning's weather. What a beautiful picture. Isn't it

:15:08. > :15:11.gorgeous? Good morning to you too. It is looking slightly better today.

:15:12. > :15:19.We are also looking at sunshine and showers and you can see that each of

:15:20. > :15:24.County Down is sent in from a Weather Watcher yesterday. Some of

:15:25. > :15:30.them will have some hail embedded as well. Look at this clump, there are

:15:31. > :15:36.thunderstorms around Liverpool this morning. There is a lot of dry

:15:37. > :15:40.weather of them. It is quite a chilly start to the day, many

:15:41. > :15:44.starting in single figures. Through the day, further showers develop.

:15:45. > :15:49.You might catch one almost anywhere. In between, there will be some

:15:50. > :15:53.spells of sunshine. To the afternoon, showers across south-west

:15:54. > :15:58.England, some likely to be heavy, possibly thundery, and the same as

:15:59. > :16:01.we move into the south-east, East Anglia, the Midlands, some heavy

:16:02. > :16:07.with some hail thrown in as well as thunder. For northern England,

:16:08. > :16:12.Ireland and Scotland, sunshine and showers and in between some sunshine

:16:13. > :16:16.with temperatures up to 14- 16. You will notice in the south-east of the

:16:17. > :16:20.country that it won't be as cold as it was yesterday. Through this

:16:21. > :16:26.evening and overnight very slowly the showers recede. Some hang around

:16:27. > :16:30.the coastline. It will be a chilly night under clear skies. These are

:16:31. > :16:34.the temperatures in towns and cities, 8-12, might lower in the

:16:35. > :16:41.countryside with a touch of frost. And some patchy mist and fog as

:16:42. > :16:45.well. It will lift readily and many will get off to a dry start with one

:16:46. > :16:49.or two showers around from south-east Scotland down to

:16:50. > :16:54.south-east England, and some in the west as well, though they will be

:16:55. > :16:58.fewer and further between. In between a lot of dry weather and

:16:59. > :17:03.sunshine around, temperatures 14 in the north, 21 in the south.

:17:04. > :17:08.Overnight into Saturday we will have clear skies under this high

:17:09. > :17:11.pressure, so it will be cold in the countryside, and a touch of frost.

:17:12. > :17:17.As we head into the weekend we have signs of a change coming into the

:17:18. > :17:22.west. On Saturday we start off on a cold note with some frost and a lot

:17:23. > :17:26.of dry weather. One or two showers in the south-east, it and they will

:17:27. > :17:30.be the exception rather than the rule. Later in the day the cloud

:17:31. > :17:34.will build to the west with the arrival of the next set of systems.

:17:35. > :17:39.They are coming in from the west. It will be wet and windy for Northern

:17:40. > :17:42.Ireland, western Scotland and the south-west, although it will grind

:17:43. > :17:47.to a halt with some cloud develop ahead of it. A further east you are

:17:48. > :17:52.the dry and sunny at the weather is likely to be. Thank you. -- sunnier.

:17:53. > :18:04.Morning. Let's have a look at the papers. Two main stories, the first

:18:05. > :18:10.is, "I am no quitter" as Theresa May pledges to lead the Conservative

:18:11. > :18:13.Party beyond Brexit. This promise the Guardian says risks igniting

:18:14. > :18:17.anger among Tory MPs after suggestions she would go in 2019.

:18:18. > :18:23.Drinking green tea on a Japanese visit. Very healthy. The Times

:18:24. > :18:27.leading with Theresa May, and the main picture of the two princes and

:18:28. > :18:31.the Duchess yesterday outside Kensington Palace as they went to

:18:32. > :18:36.see the flowers left in memory of Princess Diana on the 20th

:18:37. > :18:40.anniversary of the death of her life and we heard from our reported

:18:41. > :18:46.earlier. The Daily Mail have a say in picture of the same event. And

:18:47. > :18:50.the next to it a picture of them in an identical picture two decades ago

:18:51. > :18:56.just after their mother died. That double picture on some of the front

:18:57. > :18:59.pages, on the Sun as well, quoting the Daily Telegraph, saying that all

:19:00. > :19:05.of us lost someone that date, the Sun speaking of the grief shared

:19:06. > :19:10.with the nation. One other thing we are talking about is this transfer

:19:11. > :19:15.window. And I mentioned it is like an merry-go-round, one person gets

:19:16. > :19:22.on and another gets off. Let's have a look at the Mirror, going, going,

:19:23. > :19:26.gone, Diego Costa is going to be allowed to train at Atletico Madrid

:19:27. > :19:33.before moving back in January. This is a big story for Arsenal, they say

:19:34. > :19:40.they are ready to sell Alex Sanchez to Manchester City if they can get

:19:41. > :19:46.another player in, Draxler from PSG, and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain gone

:19:47. > :19:49.more or less to Liverpool, leaving Chelsea furious, apparently, because

:19:50. > :19:54.they were expecting him to go there. And the Mirror of the best double

:19:55. > :19:59.page spread. John, if I can ask for some help. The window, Jurgen Klopp

:20:00. > :20:04.reckons he smashed it. Arsene Wenger, potentially broke it. Lots

:20:05. > :20:08.of talk in the papers today about Arsenal and crisis at the club and

:20:09. > :20:14.the dealing. And why players are moving at this point and what is

:20:15. > :20:19.their motivation. Obviously, cash helps. First-team football is

:20:20. > :20:23.increasingly important and here in the Guardian is Gareth Southgate

:20:24. > :20:33.talking about how he will only pick first team players for England. Hmm.

:20:34. > :20:39.Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain thinks he will get more games there. Philip

:20:40. > :20:51.Keating you or the entire shopping chain? -- Coutinho. The Co-op are

:20:52. > :20:57.after ?140 million. Co-op have now got exclusive talks with them now.

:20:58. > :21:06.It sounds very tranferry, doesn't it? It does. There are lots of these

:21:07. > :21:11.stores dominating the landscape. It is putting my story into perspective

:21:12. > :21:27.now, talking about a ?500 million Aston Martin Deal, to .5 Neymars.

:21:28. > :21:31.Isn't it mad? Two raccoons on the loose! They have escaped from a

:21:32. > :21:41.wildlife park. They have a nasty bite. The raccy horror show, says

:21:42. > :21:47.the Sun. Lonely chum left behind. They look cute! I know people who

:21:48. > :21:51.have woken up some mornings with bite and you don't want to go down

:21:52. > :22:00.that road. It is better than a skunk. I always say. Much better.

:22:01. > :22:04.Thank you for now. Throughout the programme this morning we will have

:22:05. > :22:08.the latest on the political story from Downing Street as Theresa May

:22:09. > :22:12.continues a trip from Japan, getting more analysis and reaction from her

:22:13. > :22:19.pledge to stay on until the next general election. But of of course

:22:20. > :22:23.we are marking 20 years on from Princess Diana's death.

:22:24. > :22:26.Prince William and Prince Harry say they want their mother to be

:22:27. > :22:29.remembered for the positive impact she had around the world and the way

:22:30. > :22:34.20 years on from the her death, we've been speaking to people

:22:35. > :22:39.who have special memories of meeting Diana, Princess of Wales.

:22:40. > :22:44.The young lady that I met that was a cracking young lady,

:22:45. > :22:48.and full of life, full of confidence.

:22:49. > :22:51.She was a breath of fresh air for the monarchy -

:22:52. > :22:55.a stuffy monarchy that needed a bit of fresh air.

:22:56. > :23:02.My name is John Walsh, and I met Princess Diana in 1991.

:23:03. > :23:05.She was patron of the Turning Point charity dinner.

:23:06. > :23:14.I picked up the menu for the evening, and I wrote on it,

:23:15. > :23:22."Next to my Mrs, you're the best-looking woman in the room,

:23:23. > :23:26.As I arrived there, she rather cheekily said,

:23:27. > :23:32."Who's this bird that's better looking than me?"

:23:33. > :23:37.But then she said, "How would you like me?"

:23:38. > :23:40."If you don't mind, I would like would like a photo

:23:41. > :23:56.And I said, "Well, everybody has a photograph of you smiling,"

:23:57. > :24:00.and at that point, she grinned, and that is one that I shot.

:24:01. > :24:09.I was the bodyguard to the late Diana, Princess of Wales,

:24:10. > :24:19.People talk about, you know, did Diana change things?

:24:20. > :24:24.I think the sort of beginning of that, there was her leap

:24:25. > :24:27.into trying to find a cure for AIDS at that point.

:24:28. > :24:30.I remember Diana meeting the Queen, here, in the mid-80s,

:24:31. > :24:33.and the Queen saying, "What are you going to do now?"

:24:34. > :24:36.And she said, "I want to get involved in the AIDS project -

:24:37. > :24:38.I think that's something worth getting involved with."

:24:39. > :24:41.And here we are, in the 21st century, and her son,

:24:42. > :24:44.Harry, openly involved in the AIDS issue, with all the support

:24:45. > :24:55.My name is Martin Neary, and I directed the music

:24:56. > :25:00.Candle In The Wind, in its original version,

:25:01. > :25:18.And so in conversations with Elton, I said to him, "This could work,

:25:19. > :25:27.And within five hours, he had come back with Goodbye England's Rose.

:25:28. > :25:32.# Your candle has burned out long before your legend ever will.

:25:33. > :25:35.She had a touch with people which just crossed all

:25:36. > :25:46.And that is very telling, and it was worldwide.

:25:47. > :25:54.And we are talking to a pallbearer at the funeral of Princess Diana 20

:25:55. > :25:55.years ago that in the programme. Hard to believe, isn't it, 20 years

:25:56. > :29:18.Time now to get the news, have passed.

:29:19. > :29:21.Plenty more on our website at the usual address.

:29:22. > :29:27.Now, though, it's back to Naga and Jon.

:29:28. > :29:30.This is Breakfast, with Naga Munchetty and Jon Kay.

:29:52. > :29:54.We'll ask whether the law brought in last year to ban so-called legal

:29:55. > :30:10.Everyone in this room have their eyes glued to mine for the entire

:30:11. > :30:10.session. And after 8:30, we'll meet two

:30:11. > :30:13.of the people tasked with Educating Greater Manchester,

:30:14. > :30:16.and turning around a school once deemed to be the worst

:30:17. > :30:18.in the country. I would feel nervous in that

:30:19. > :30:21.situation. But now, a summary of this

:30:22. > :30:26.morning's main news. Theresa May says she wants to lead

:30:27. > :30:29.the Conservatives into the next General Election saying she's in it

:30:30. > :30:31."for the long-term." The Foreign Secretary,

:30:32. > :30:34.Boris Johnson, has given his support, but backbench Conservative

:30:37. > :30:39.to serve the full term. The Prime Minister is currently

:30:40. > :30:43.on a three-day trip to Japan. There's been an awful lot

:30:44. > :30:47.of speculation about my future There's a real job to be done

:30:48. > :31:02.in the United Kingdom. It's about getting Brexit done

:31:03. > :31:05.right, it's about getting that deep and special relationship

:31:06. > :31:07.with the EU for the future. It's also about getting global

:31:08. > :31:10.Britain and trading around the world and dealing with injustice

:32:50. > :32:52.the amount of federal government aid it will need in the aftermath

:32:53. > :32:55.of Hurricane Harvey, is likely to be far in excess

:32:56. > :32:58.of the $100 billion made available after the storm that devastated

:32:59. > :33:01.New Orleans 12 years ago. At least 25 people have been killed

:33:02. > :33:04.in the aftermath of Harvey. Pipelines and fuel production have

:33:51. > :33:53.New York's Gugenheim Museum has been the venue for some provocative works

:33:54. > :33:56.of art over the years, but there has probably never been

:34:23. > :34:28.that be a cent with the million dollar work of art.

:34:29. > :34:53.Incredible. Lino on the floor. That is ridiculous. That is quite cool.

:34:54. > :34:58.Cool? It would suit my house... Wearing my slippers. I can see it. I

:34:59. > :35:07.can see it. You would get one. I have one already, I have four. I

:35:08. > :35:24.wonder how many Alex Oxlade-Chamberlains could you get?

:35:25. > :35:28.40 golden toilets! You are reading those contracts too tightly. I have

:35:29. > :35:33.my phone on me to see if someone can give me any latebreaking deals. I

:35:34. > :35:37.think they are all asleep, to be honest.

:35:38. > :35:40.We're into the final day of a record breaking football transfer window.

:35:41. > :35:43.Premier League clubs have spent comfortably more than a billion

:35:44. > :35:46.pounds so far and we expect millions more to be splurged today.

:35:47. > :35:49.Liverpool look set to pay ?40 million for Arsenal's Alex

:35:50. > :35:53.He won the FA Cup last season with the Gunners and turned down

:35:54. > :35:59.But Arsenal are still hoping to keep Alexis Sanchez.

:36:00. > :36:01.They've rejected a ?50 million bid from Manchester City.

:36:02. > :36:05.He scored 24 league goals last season but only has a year left

:36:06. > :36:09.The England and Everton midfielder Ross Barkley is another who could be

:36:10. > :36:12.But the Toffees have turned down an offer of ?25

:36:13. > :36:16.He's missed all three league matches this season through injury,

:36:17. > :36:18.and some feel all transfers should be completed before

:36:19. > :36:32.The recommendation is to close the window before the season starts so

:36:33. > :36:37.everyone knows where the players have gone so we can see what the

:36:38. > :36:41.first results will look like. And also they can make other clubs

:36:42. > :36:51.poorer. I think Sir Alex Ferguson could be

:36:52. > :37:01.right. Why would you start making deals now when a player has already

:37:02. > :37:02.done three or four games already this season. It's odd timing.

:37:03. > :37:05.And you can follow all the deals on the BBC Sport website,

:37:06. > :37:09.which will have a live page with updates until the window closes

:37:10. > :37:13.Five live have a special programme from seven this evening and there's

:37:17. > :37:19.Kyle Edmund is the last British hope at the US Open.

:37:20. > :37:22.He beat American Steve Johnson in straight sets to get

:37:23. > :37:25.Aljaz Bedene and Cameron Norrie both went out though.

:37:26. > :37:27.Rain meant they were still completing the first

:37:28. > :37:33.He injured his shoulder losing to fellow Australian John Millman.

:37:34. > :37:36.It didn't seem to hamper him though when he smashed his racket

:37:37. > :37:39.beyond repair after losing the third set.

:37:40. > :37:42.Kyrios is one of a number of players to have suffered injury trouble

:37:43. > :37:45.recently, with five top players having withdrawn from this year's US

:37:46. > :37:50.Caroline Wozniacki is out but another former world number one

:37:51. > :37:52.Maria Sharapova is through to the third round.

:37:53. > :37:56.The Russian, playing her first Grand Slam since a 15-month doping

:37:57. > :38:00.ban, came from a set down to beat Timea Babos.

:38:01. > :38:09.I know I can do this. I have done it before. I want to have that feeling

:38:10. > :38:13.again. There is also the realistic understanding that, OK, I have been

:38:14. > :38:17.in this situation for a while, it will take some time. Of course,

:38:18. > :38:19.managing expectations is part of it and learning during the match is

:38:20. > :38:22.something that I haven't done. It may be possible to do a pitchside

:38:23. > :38:25.saliva test for concussion in the next few years

:38:26. > :38:28.if a new study is successful. Scientists at the University

:38:29. > :38:33.of Birmingham want to make a hand-held test which could provide

:38:34. > :38:36.instant results so they're taking saliva samples from players

:38:37. > :38:39.in the top two tiers It's the biggest study of its kind

:38:40. > :38:55.and could revolutionise the way head What we want is to have a portable

:38:56. > :38:58.pitch side test which can be used by doctors, if you want, in a

:38:59. > :39:04.professional game, or potentially the parent, if they work as well as

:39:05. > :39:09.we hope, to see whether their son or daughter has had a concussion, or a

:39:10. > :39:11.school nurse potentially to assess whether someone has had a concussion

:39:12. > :39:16.or not. Chris Froome has taken a big step

:39:17. > :39:19.towards winning the Vuelta a Espana title as he opened up

:39:20. > :39:22.a big lead on the field Froome is aiming to become the first

:39:23. > :39:27.rider to win the Tour de France and Vuelta in the same year since

:39:28. > :39:42.Frenchman Bernard Ee-no in 1978. I was trying to think of something

:39:43. > :39:47.clever to say, like "Taking a big step," "Freewheeling towards..." You

:39:48. > :39:47.have some time, come up with it for next time.

:39:48. > :39:50.Devastating floods and landslides are thought to have killed more

:39:51. > :39:53.than a thousand people in parts of India, Nepal, and Bangladesh.

:39:54. > :39:56.Over the last month,, heavy monsoon rains have also forced

:39:57. > :39:58.hundreds of thousands of people from their homes.

:39:59. > :40:01.The Red Cross has described the situation as one of the worst

:40:02. > :40:03.regional humanitarian crisis in years.

:40:04. > :40:06.We can speak now to Hanna Butler who's from the organisation.

:40:07. > :40:11.She's at a camp for displaced people in northern India.

:40:12. > :40:18.Thank you for joining us. Maybe you could tell us what you have seen

:40:19. > :40:27.while you have been there. What has your experience been? Right now I am

:40:28. > :40:31.in a north-eastern state of India. Before this I was in the worst

:40:32. > :40:38.affected state by the floods and also one of the poorest in India.

:40:39. > :40:43.The flooding hit a month ago here. I tell you what, there is still a lot

:40:44. > :40:49.of water and damage and people out of their homes. Umm, people that are

:40:50. > :40:53.surviving are getting on with things as much as they can, but there has

:40:54. > :41:00.been a lot of damage. The numbers are huge across the region. 41

:41:01. > :41:06.million people are affected in India alone. The damage is such that while

:41:07. > :41:11.people are looking after each other and surviving initially, coping

:41:12. > :41:18.mechanisms will be stretched. They will soon start needing help with

:41:19. > :41:21.shelter and water and with helping them get back onto their feet.

:41:22. > :41:29.Because these floods have washed away... I have seen homes totally

:41:30. > :41:34.washed away, and everything is gone. A couple of days ago, it looked like

:41:35. > :41:42.I was in a lake, a river. Soon someone would tell me know, this is

:41:43. > :41:46.where my house was. We have pictures now of people and possessions being

:41:47. > :41:53.carried down the street by water. We have seen many pictures out of the

:41:54. > :41:59.United States of Tropical Storm Harvey. But responding to a disaster

:42:00. > :42:03.where you are is much more difficult. Is it possible to compare

:42:04. > :42:08.the way that they have been able to deal with things in northern India?

:42:09. > :42:13.What is going on in the United States is terrible as well, like

:42:14. > :42:19.what is going on here. Here in India, Bangladesh, Nepal, the

:42:20. > :42:25.numbers are as significant, and the infrastructure is such that it is

:42:26. > :42:29.hard to respond. A community I met a couple of days ago, they were

:42:30. > :42:34.flooded two weeks ago and they only got access by road to war three days

:42:35. > :42:40.ago. In that time, they were provided with aid by the Indian

:42:41. > :42:48.government. But it is a different landscape, the rain, way of working.

:42:49. > :42:54.But like in the United States, it is taking a toll. We can cast a rise

:42:55. > :42:59.over this side of the world to see what is going on. Do you feel like

:43:00. > :43:07.you are winning at getting to grips with it? There is a long way to go.

:43:08. > :43:11.India is huge and needs will grow. The disaster is not over when the

:43:12. > :43:18.floodwaters recede. At this stage, rescues are still being carried out.

:43:19. > :43:22.We are getting a clear idea of the extent of the damage. Thank you for

:43:23. > :43:30.joining us from the British Red Cross this morning. Devastating

:43:31. > :43:36.pictures. Umm... It is time to talk to Carol. Good morning. Good

:43:37. > :43:40.morning. A mixture of sunshine and showers today. Some of the showers

:43:41. > :43:47.will be heavy. Some already are. Thunder and lightning and hail. The

:43:48. > :43:53.satellite, yesterday's rain clearing away. Look at this clump. It is

:43:54. > :43:56.going across the north-west of England and Wales. This is quite a

:43:57. > :44:00.potent area of showers with torrential downpours and thunder and

:44:01. > :44:04.lightning coming out of this as well. If you are travelling, bear

:44:05. > :44:09.that in mind. Western areas with showers to start. The rest of us,

:44:10. > :44:14.dry. Showers developing through the day. Some of those will be heavy as

:44:15. > :44:20.well with some thunder and hail. In between the showers, sunshine.

:44:21. > :44:24.Temperatures responding nicely. Yesterday, part of Surrey, Sussex,

:44:25. > :44:29.Kent, they did not get higher than 13. Today, 21. East Anglia, the

:44:30. > :44:34.Midlands, Wales, Northern Ireland, Scotland, the forecast is the same.

:44:35. > :44:39.A mixture of bright spells, sunshine, showers. Some of them

:44:40. > :44:43.heavy and thundery with hail. Good sunshine in between. Through the

:44:44. > :44:49.evening and overnight, what we find is that slowly we lose the showers.

:44:50. > :44:53.We hang onto clumps on the coastline. Mist and fog forming. A

:44:54. > :44:57.cold night to be the temperatures are what you can expect for towns

:44:58. > :45:02.and cities. The countryside, much lower. In some cases, grass frost

:45:03. > :45:08.first thing in the morning. A chilly start to the day. Under the skies,

:45:09. > :45:11.beautiful as well. Lots of sunshine. Still showers. Extending from

:45:12. > :45:17.south-east Scotland to south-west England. Not all of us will see

:45:18. > :45:22.them. A peppering in the midwest to be for most of the UK, dry with

:45:23. > :45:28.sunny spells. Temperature-wise, pretty good. 14 in the north. 21 to

:45:29. > :45:32.go towards the south. Under the ridge of high pressure, Friday to

:45:33. > :45:39.Saturday, again, clear skies. Another cool night. Frost around.

:45:40. > :45:42.Again, not everywhere. Sunday, a new set of systems coming in from the

:45:43. > :45:48.Atlantic. That will change the weather in the west. Saturday, a

:45:49. > :45:53.chilly start. Local grass frost. Dry weather. Sunshine. One or two

:45:54. > :45:58.showers in the south-east. This will be the exception. The cloud is

:45:59. > :46:01.starting to build up later in the day from the west across Northern

:46:02. > :46:07.Ireland, heralding the arrival of this new set of fronts. Sunday. That

:46:08. > :46:11.set of fronts will approach in the west, introducing more cloud, also

:46:12. > :46:18.some rain, and windier conditions. It is slowly going to drift east.

:46:19. > :46:24.The eastern extent open to question. Then grinds to a halt. Sunny skies

:46:25. > :46:27.the further east you travel. Back to you.

:46:28. > :46:35.Thanks very much. It doesn't look too bad at all. Especially when you

:46:36. > :46:44.see pictures from India. Oh, absolutely. We are talking about the

:46:45. > :46:48.Prime Minister going to Japan. They have done a lot of business, and we

:46:49. > :46:53.have heard about a deal between Japan and Aston Martin.

:46:54. > :46:54.Lots of ground were put into place before Brexit and Japan is quite

:46:55. > :47:01.important. -- ground work. Japan is the world's

:47:02. > :47:03.third biggest economy, and they bought over ?10 billion

:47:04. > :47:06.pounds worth of British goods But they're also one of the top

:47:07. > :47:11.countries putting money into the UK with big names like Nissan,

:47:12. > :47:13.Toyota and Hitachi employing And one of the most eye catching

:47:14. > :47:18.deals to come out of the three day trip comes from Aston Martin

:47:19. > :47:20.the British carmaker, has announced a package of trade

:47:21. > :47:23.and investment deals worth It'll help secure jobs

:47:24. > :47:27.in their plants Wales and the West He joins us from our

:47:28. > :47:39.Birmingham studio. Good morning. ?500 million, it is a

:47:40. > :47:43.big figure, with trade deals we hear about that all of the time. What

:47:44. > :47:48.does it mean for you and Japan? A lot of it is to do with the cars we

:47:49. > :47:55.will export to Japan over the next five years as part of our plan to

:47:56. > :48:00.redevelop the product range at Aston Martin. We see Japan as a big

:48:01. > :48:04.opportunity for us in terms of the products we sell and export terms,

:48:05. > :48:11.so the vast bulk of that is car exports. We are also investing in

:48:12. > :48:16.the Japanese suppliers and in a larger presence in Japan. We have

:48:17. > :48:19.talked about being a luxury accelerator business which is all to

:48:20. > :48:23.do in simple terms with understanding more about what the

:48:24. > :48:28.consumer wants. When you say it is all about exports, how can you

:48:29. > :48:32.guarantee Japanese customers will buy your cars, because that seems to

:48:33. > :48:36.be what you're saying? Japanese customers have bought our cars for a

:48:37. > :48:40.long time and they will be in the top five of the biggest market in

:48:41. > :48:44.the world as we move forward. There is nothing really changing but what

:48:45. > :48:49.we are doing is investing in Japan because we see it as a huge growth

:48:50. > :48:55.market for and technology markets. He mentioned big market around the

:48:56. > :48:59.world. Of course, Brexit, the trade deal to be sorted out for the rest

:49:00. > :49:04.of the UK. When the vote to leave happened you said you were not happy

:49:05. > :49:10.with the lack of plan from the Leave campaign. We are a year on. Are you

:49:11. > :49:13.happy with the plan? Yes, we have seen substantial progress and we

:49:14. > :49:16.welcome the steps the government has taken in recent months to provide

:49:17. > :49:20.clarity. Particularly around the white paper on the customs union and

:49:21. > :49:27.the transitional arrangements. We are pleased with what we see. We

:49:28. > :49:33.would still like to see more clarity more quickly. I don't think you can

:49:34. > :49:37.have too much clarity. We are very focused on this trade and making it

:49:38. > :49:41.easy to do business around the world. With the pound as weak as it

:49:42. > :49:45.is from a holiday perspective, for businesses like yours hasn't it been

:49:46. > :49:52.a good thing that the pound has fallen 20%? That has helped. We

:49:53. > :50:00.import goods and services as well. As the pound falls we pay more for

:50:01. > :50:04.those goods and services. Yes, it has helped since the vote. Finally

:50:05. > :50:10.on electric cars, we have talked about the future of cars in the UK,

:50:11. > :50:15.you have a shiny car that is for petrol heads and diesel heads, that

:50:16. > :50:20.is how I would look at it. Do you have to adapt to who your customer

:50:21. > :50:26.is and have quieter cars that don't sound as good? We are constantly

:50:27. > :50:33.adapting and we will be the first with a battery electric vehicle in

:50:34. > :50:37.2019. We are on the front foot in regards to battery technology. When

:50:38. > :50:41.you talk about sound and emotion, that is important as well. There is

:50:42. > :50:46.no reason why quiet cannot also be beautiful. A lot of customers are

:50:47. > :50:51.very discerning people and they will want that going forward. We are

:50:52. > :50:56.changing and we see that as an important part of our future. Thank

:50:57. > :51:00.you very much. The chief financial officer at Aston Martin. Quite

:51:01. > :51:09.interesting how they are adapting. That is one that has happened today.

:51:10. > :51:10.Yes, the vroom vroom is still important.

:51:11. > :51:14.A law banning so-called legal highs in the UK is to be reviewed

:51:15. > :51:16.after the collapse of the first contested cases brought under

:51:17. > :51:20.Two separate trials of people accused of intending to supply

:51:21. > :51:23.nitrous oxide, known as laughing gas, at music festivals were thrown

:51:24. > :51:26.out on Wednesday after the courts heard the drug is exempt.

:51:27. > :51:28.It raises questions over the effectiveness

:51:29. > :51:30.of the Psychoactive Substances Act, which was introduced last year.

:51:31. > :51:42.We're joined now by Dr Robert Ralphs, a lecturer in Criminology

:51:43. > :51:45.and specialist in substance legislation, and Dr Oliver Sutcliffe

:51:46. > :51:46.who's a lecturer in Psychopharmaceutical Chemistry.

:51:47. > :51:49.Both are from Manchester Metropolitan University.

:51:50. > :51:56.Morning to you both and thank you for coming in. Let's talk about

:51:57. > :52:01.nitrous oxide. These are the canisters you might see on the floor

:52:02. > :52:08.in the park and on the street. What does it do? Basically the product

:52:09. > :52:15.even that is a gas that is used called laughing gas as an

:52:16. > :52:20.anaesthetic medically and also in the food industry to produce whipped

:52:21. > :52:28.cream. Where do you get these? The canisters you can see on the images

:52:29. > :52:33.you can purchase from any food supplier if necessary. The larger

:52:34. > :52:39.cylinders potentially would be purchased by medical and hospitals.

:52:40. > :52:48.What is the problem when it comes to these cases in court? Why can't they

:52:49. > :52:53.be prosecuted for intent to supply dangerous substances? When it was

:52:54. > :53:01.referred to a blanket ban it was banned with any psychoactive effect

:53:02. > :53:08.and it was most notably exempted for nitrous oxide, anything for food,

:53:09. > :53:14.any medicinal purpose, and with nitrous oxide it can be used as a

:53:15. > :53:19.whipping agent, it has a medical use, traditionally in dentistry,

:53:20. > :53:23.also in childbirth. Quite odd, if I had a load of these canisters and

:53:24. > :53:28.was going into this festival, it is a pretty odd defence, and I am not

:53:29. > :53:34.making any comment on this case, if you have a load of these and you

:53:35. > :53:39.think, I am going to whip up some cream, it won't fly, will it?

:53:40. > :53:43.Students are coming back to university and I can guarantee up

:53:44. > :53:47.and down the country they will be finding hundreds or thousands of

:53:48. > :53:53.canisters. There is a lot of talk about the bake off this week and

:53:54. > :53:58.people baking again. When you look at some of the sales online, that

:53:59. > :54:02.can't be put down to the increasing young people getting back into

:54:03. > :54:10.baking. People are buying them in hundreds. Where does it leave this

:54:11. > :54:14.law? Is it fit for purpose? We had a drug policy reform group, academics,

:54:15. > :54:23.lawyers, police forces around the country saying this was going to be

:54:24. > :54:29.unenforceable. It is most commonly used for young people under 25 after

:54:30. > :54:35.cannabis in the UK and that continues. What does it do to you

:54:36. > :54:40.physically? The substance itself acts on the central nervous system

:54:41. > :54:44.like most Psychoactive Substances Act. What it does is it has a

:54:45. > :54:48.depressant effect causing anaesthesia, so it makes you feel

:54:49. > :54:55.more relaxed, which is why it is used in childbirth. It has a calming

:54:56. > :55:02.effect. Does it limit your intake of oxygen? People collapse from this.

:55:03. > :55:06.And there can be instances when if you take enough of a substance in

:55:07. > :55:11.like nitrous oxide or carbon dioxide your body will struggle to

:55:12. > :55:15.potentially process oxygen efficiently and that can lead to

:55:16. > :55:20.potential unconsciousness. This wasn't just dealing with nitrous

:55:21. > :55:23.oxide, it was dealing with all kinds of substances. Are they affected

:55:24. > :55:27.with this as well, or is it not a straightforward because they are not

:55:28. > :55:30.involved in food? Six months after the act came out the government

:55:31. > :55:36.released figures to show 500 people had been arrested linked with the

:55:37. > :55:41.Psychoactive Substances Act. When you look deep into that 70% were

:55:42. > :55:45.linked with possession or the attempt to supply nitrous oxide.

:55:46. > :56:00.This act is significant. In the Metropolitan Police loan there was a

:56:01. > :56:05.arrests -- alone there were a arrests. This is a significant case.

:56:06. > :56:19.Thank you very much for explaining. 4 billion years from now when the

:56:20. > :56:23.sun turns into a red giant, Cattina and Toyota will be trucking out

:56:24. > :56:28.there through the stars - we will still be out there -- Voyager will

:56:29. > :56:29.still be trucking out there through the stars.

:56:30. > :56:31.Before 9am, we'll hear about the incredible Voyager mission

:56:32. > :56:34.and learn why some consider it to be humankind's greatest achievement.

:01:22. > :01:25.but some nurseries warn that they'll struggle to cope.

:01:26. > :01:34.Good morning. There were even less houses to choose from in July as the

:01:35. > :01:37.number of houses on the market dropped to the most in 15 years.

:01:44. > :01:53.And Carol has the weather. Good morning. A chilly start to the day.

:01:54. > :01:57.For many, a dry and sunny one. We have some heavy and thundery showers

:01:58. > :02:01.in parts of the west, especially the north-west of England and north-west

:02:02. > :02:07.Wales at the moment. They will develop widely through the day. I

:02:28. > :02:30.There's been an awful lot of speculation about my future

:02:31. > :02:42.There's a real job to be done in the United Kingdom.

:02:43. > :02:45.It's about getting the Brexit deal right, it's about getting that deep

:02:46. > :02:54.and special relationship with the EU for the future.

:02:55. > :02:57.But it's also about getting global Britain, trading around the world,

:02:58. > :03:00.yes, dealing with injustice within the UK, but also going out

:03:01. > :03:03.and around the world, ensuring we can do those trade deals

:03:04. > :03:05.which bring prosperity to our economy and bring jobs

:03:06. > :03:09.Our political correspondent, Ben Wright, is in Japan.

:03:10. > :03:12.Ben, it seems that even over there, Theresa May can't escape questions

:03:13. > :03:27.She wants to talk about good foreign relations and trade, but not

:03:28. > :03:34.everyone wants to. That is correct. This is a trip that was advertised

:03:35. > :03:39.as a trade mission. She is here with business leaders. She wants to talk

:03:40. > :03:43.to Japanese leaders about how Brexit will pan out, looking at a future

:03:44. > :03:48.trade deal with Japan and the UK, yet she has also used this trip

:03:49. > :03:53.fresh off the back of her summer holidays, three months on from the

:03:54. > :03:58.general election which she botched, losing the Tory majority, she is

:03:59. > :04:03.using it to reassert her authority, I think, to her cabinet and party,

:04:04. > :04:07.making it quite clear there was no vacancy at the top and there would

:04:08. > :04:13.not be for another five years. I asked her whether she was going to

:04:14. > :04:17.lead the Tories do the next general election in 2022. She was emphatic

:04:18. > :04:24.that she would. She could have said I would get through Brexit and we

:04:25. > :04:28.would see, give some date in the future she would want to leave, but

:04:29. > :04:31.that would immediately make her a lame-duck Prime Minister. Perhaps

:04:32. > :04:35.there is no alternative but to be assertive about intentions to be

:04:36. > :04:38.there for the long-term. It is a very interesting development. I

:04:39. > :04:50.think it shows she really plans now to stick around through Brexit and

:04:51. > :04:55.beyond. Now it is about whether the parliament agreed. Boris Johnson

:04:56. > :05:05.backs are completely, that is clear. She has some issue with

:05:06. > :05:08.Remain-leaning Tory MPs who want her gone before the next general

:05:09. > :05:12.election, but for now, she has solidified her place. We will talk

:05:13. > :05:13.to you later in the programme. For now, goodbye.

:06:24. > :06:26.Mark, people have already started laying flowers there haven't they?

:06:27. > :06:31.We saw the princes at the gates taking public appearances. This is

:06:32. > :06:37.where the people will go today. What are you seeing at the moment?

:06:38. > :06:45.Exactly. They will come here today. As the sad news reverberated around

:06:46. > :06:52.the world 20 years ago, now it is doing so again. People are coming

:06:53. > :06:56.here to pay respects. After William and Harry came yesterday, people

:06:57. > :07:03.have been arriving and putting down flowers, like these roses here which

:07:04. > :07:12.Terry brought. You had the chance to meet her when she was alive. How did

:07:13. > :07:18.it go? It was a privilege. She was giving blankets and food for the

:07:19. > :07:25.homeless. She had her own feelings about the people. It happened one

:07:26. > :07:31.night she came along and we were going to be evicted the following

:07:32. > :07:38.day. I don't know what made her come, but she looks down at us all,

:07:39. > :07:43.and we were all amazed, just like an angel, she spoke to us all, and one

:07:44. > :07:53.of the guys offered her a spoonful of beans and, very sweet, she knelt

:07:54. > :08:02.down, she said she ate already. It went down so well, it is

:08:03. > :08:12.unbelievable. She gave everyone a lovely smile. The human touch,

:12:22. > :12:27.children missing out more. We found that, of the over ?9 billion extra

:12:34. > :12:37.just 2.5% of that is going to go to the most disadvantaged. And

:13:02. > :13:09.critical early educational needs that the most disadvantaged families

:13:16. > :13:19.of how well you will do is how well you were developed by the age of

:13:25. > :13:29.more emphasis and money into making sure we have quality early education

:13:36. > :13:41.get more and more wide. What do you want? You want the tax free

:13:42. > :13:46.childcare scrapped? That is the initial policy which mainly benefits

:13:47. > :13:50.people like me, high income families. I cannot see the

:13:51. > :13:53.justification for that, for the government to spend that huge amount

:13:54. > :13:59.of money. You are encouraging parents to work? Most of the

:14:00. > :14:02.evidence would suggest that certainly for higher income

:14:03. > :14:09.families, they will work anyway, because they will meet those costs

:14:10. > :14:16.themselves to be it is a subsidy for high-income families. It is better

:14:17. > :14:19.to spend that money on the people who would most benefit from quality

:14:20. > :14:23.early education at the earliest years so they get the gains through

:14:24. > :14:32.the educational life they have. Society and the economy as a whole

:14:33. > :14:36.will get benefits from that. We spend a huge amount of money trying

:14:37. > :14:41.to get people to catch up through their lives. Get that money in when

:14:42. > :14:47.they are 1-5 and you can close that before they even start school. That

:14:48. > :14:55.is what these extra 15 hours are. But the main beneficiaries of the

:14:56. > :15:01.extra 15 hours they are better off... The parents who earn less

:15:02. > :15:04.than ?100,000 per year. But the distribution of those funds will

:15:05. > :15:11.more greatly benefit the better off, just because they are more likely to

:15:12. > :15:16.take it up because they are both in work and can both earn up to

:15:17. > :15:19.?100,000 a year each. The analysis we have produced in this report

:15:20. > :15:25.today with the social market foundation shows the most is

:15:26. > :15:30.advantaged missing out almost entirely. The bottom half of

:15:31. > :15:37.earners, they only get a quarter of the money. I don't see how you can

:15:38. > :15:41.really justify that. A universal offer which would also avoid a lot

:15:42. > :15:47.of the chaos and confusion we are seeing today with parents having to

:15:48. > :15:52.apply for the extra 15 hours, that, a process they are going through, it

:15:53. > :15:55.is causing delays to the system. If we had a universal offer with every

:15:56. > :15:59.family qualifying, we would benefit the most disadvantaged with no

:16:00. > :16:03.chaos. Thank you very much for your time.

:16:04. > :16:10.The last day of August as we reflect on all the sunshine. You knew about

:16:11. > :16:12.the meteorological end of summer. That's right, Carol, the end of

:16:13. > :16:20.summer for you? Well, no, meteorologically speaking,

:16:21. > :16:24.tomorrow is the first day of autumn but it's only in meteorological

:16:25. > :16:28.terms so we can use standards to measure one year against the next

:16:29. > :16:35.but it's different from everyone else's. Today's forecast is

:16:36. > :16:39.unsettled. We are looking at sunny spells and heavy showers. Some do

:16:40. > :16:43.have heavy showers already, not just heavy but also thundery. It wouldn't

:16:44. > :16:48.be out of order to call them intense. Stretching across

:16:49. > :16:51.north-west Wales, heading particularly through Lancashire,

:16:52. > :16:55.where we are seeing a lot of rain in a short amount of time, accompanied

:16:56. > :17:00.by thunder and lightning. If you're travelling this morning, a fair bit

:17:01. > :17:05.of surface water and sprayed on the roads, take extra care. Many are

:17:06. > :17:08.starting on a dry and sunny note. A sunny start with temperatures widely

:17:09. > :17:12.in single figures at the moment, the exception is the south coast and

:17:13. > :17:16.Outer Hebrides but you can see how the showers develop through the day

:17:17. > :17:22.and really anywhere today could catch one and anywhere could see

:17:23. > :17:26.thundery conditions with hail embedded. In between those showers

:17:27. > :17:29.there will be lengthy dry spells with lengthy sunshine and because

:17:30. > :17:33.they are showers some will miss them altogether. If you're in the

:17:34. > :17:37.south-eastern quarter of the UK, what a change in terms of

:17:38. > :17:41.temperatures being much higher, yesterday they struggled to get to

:17:42. > :17:45.13, today we are looking at 20 or 21. Further north temperatures

:17:46. > :17:48.actually very similar to what you had yesterday and in between the

:17:49. > :17:52.showers there will be some sunshine. Heading on through the evening and

:17:53. > :17:56.overnight, slowly the showers will tend to fade inland, still a few

:17:57. > :18:00.clusters around the coastline. The cloud will break and it will be

:18:01. > :18:03.another cool night. These are the kind of temperatures you can expect

:18:04. > :18:07.in towns and cities, much colder than that in the countryside and for

:18:08. > :18:13.some we will see a touch of frost in the countryside. Any patch a Jo

:18:14. > :18:18.patchy mist and fog that's disperse is that any patchy mist and fog that

:18:19. > :18:24.this comes overnight -- any patchy mist and fog that comes overnight

:18:25. > :18:28.will disperse quickly. In between the showers you will still see

:18:29. > :18:33.sunshine and it will feel pleasant, temperatures 14 to 21. Friday into

:18:34. > :18:36.Saturday we still have a ridge of high pressure across us so a nippy

:18:37. > :18:40.night once again with some grass frost here and there in the

:18:41. > :18:44.countryside. That what's coming our way on Sunday, not all of us will

:18:45. > :18:48.feel the benefit of this, if you want to call it a benefit, but it

:18:49. > :18:52.won't be showing its hand just yet on Saturday with most of the UK dry,

:18:53. > :18:56.sunny and pleasantly warm. Possibly a few showers in the south-east,

:18:57. > :19:02.they will be the exception rather than the rule and later in the day

:19:03. > :19:05.the cloud will thicken across the rest of Northern Ireland initially

:19:06. > :19:09.and that will held at the arrival of this weather front wringing wet and

:19:10. > :19:15.windy conditions from the west -- will herald. The further east you

:19:16. > :19:17.are, the warmer it will be -- bringing wet and windy conditions.

:19:18. > :19:31.Some breaking news. The online gambling company 888 Holdings has

:19:32. > :19:34.received a big fine. Sean is here to explain. What is this about?

:19:35. > :19:40.A website where if you played roulette or bingo online you might

:19:41. > :19:45.be familiar with it, one of England's biggest gambling sites,

:19:46. > :19:48.they haven't reached the standards required of them with customers.

:19:49. > :19:53.People having problems with a gambling. There is something called

:19:54. > :19:58.self exclusion where you can tick a box and you can't access your

:19:59. > :20:02.account for a while. 7000 customers self excluded so they couldn't

:20:03. > :20:06.access their account, but they were still able to for more than a year

:20:07. > :20:14.so the gambling commission is find them up to ?8 million -- fined.

:20:15. > :20:17.There was a technical problem and the device didn't work and the

:20:18. > :20:21.gambling commission isn't happy they didn't notice. ?3.5 million is

:20:22. > :20:31.deposited by people that didn't want to gamble and they betted ?50

:20:32. > :20:34.million over ear, quite big amounts from 888 Holdings -- over the year.

:20:35. > :20:39.This comes at a time when the government is looking at the way the

:20:40. > :20:44.gambling industry and people affected are being hurt. Indeed. And

:20:45. > :20:46.betting shops on the high street. Thanks very much.

:20:47. > :20:49.It was just after midnight exactly 20 years ago today

:20:50. > :20:52.that news began to emerge of a car crash, which involved one

:20:53. > :20:55.of the most famous women in the world,

:20:56. > :20:58.A short time earlier she had left the Ritz Hotel in Paris

:20:59. > :21:01.Our Royal correspondent, Nicholas Witchell, looks back

:21:02. > :21:04.at the events of that night and the days that followed.

:21:05. > :21:15.Paris in the early moments of the 31st of August 1997. The car

:21:16. > :21:20.carrying Diana Princess of Wales has crashed in an underpass. The driver

:21:21. > :21:25.and her companion, Dodi Al Fayed, are dead. Diana has suffered serious

:21:26. > :21:30.internal injuries. By the time she reached hospital she had suffered

:21:31. > :21:36.several heart attacks. At 4am Paris time Diana is declared dead. This is

:21:37. > :21:39.BBC television from London. A short while ago Buckingham Palace

:21:40. > :21:44.confirmed the death of Diana, Princess of Wales. The Princess died

:21:45. > :21:48.following a car accident... The first flowers are placed at the

:21:49. > :21:54.palace gates. In the hours and days that were to follow, many thousands

:21:55. > :22:01.of people added their tributes. We are today a nation in Britain in a

:22:02. > :22:06.state of shock. At Balmoral, the Royal family go to church. Among

:22:07. > :22:11.them are the 15-year-old William and 12-year-old Harry. No mention is

:22:12. > :22:16.made at Church of the tragedy. Late afternoon in Paris, Prince Charles

:22:17. > :22:22.has arrived at the hospital where Diana died, accompanied by her two

:22:23. > :22:27.sisters. 7pm at RAF Northolt in London. The

:22:28. > :22:33.body of Diana, Princess of Wales is born from the aircraft covered with

:22:34. > :22:36.the Royal standard. On this day 20 years ago a shocked nation was in

:22:37. > :22:40.mourning. Nicholas Witchell, BBC News.

:22:41. > :22:43.We're joined now from Kensington Palace by Former Welsh Guardsman,

:22:44. > :22:56.Phil Bartlett, who was a pallbearer at Princess Diana's funeral.

:22:57. > :23:02.Thanks for joining us. It must bring back so many memories to you

:23:03. > :23:07.personally and professionally. What's going through your mind as

:23:08. > :23:14.you stand in that place? As you can imagine, 20 years on from today it

:23:15. > :23:18.was an immense moment for all of us, to lose such a wonderful person and

:23:19. > :23:23.to be involved in such an amazing thing, like a funeral, was

:23:24. > :23:29.unbelievable. Thinking back 20 years now, I was 23 at the time, it was

:23:30. > :23:36.such a big thing for such a young person. How did you come to be

:23:37. > :23:40.chosen to have that important role on the day of the funeral?

:23:41. > :23:44.We were over in Northern Ireland at the time and we were doing a

:23:45. > :23:50.six-month tour, through that six-month tour we were out on

:23:51. > :23:55.patrols around Crossmaglen and on Sunday we were out on a patrol, we

:23:56. > :23:59.came late at night. We came in and as we came in we were told Princess

:24:00. > :24:04.Diana was involved in a car crash and from that point we decided to go

:24:05. > :24:07.to bed, we were woken up early in the morning, we were told to go on

:24:08. > :24:12.parade and our company commander came out and he read out that ten of

:24:13. > :24:16.us were going back to London to be part of that bearing party for

:24:17. > :24:21.Princess Diana. My name was the second person getting called out. We

:24:22. > :24:26.were all over six foot because we were in the Prince of Wales company

:24:27. > :24:30.and it's one of those things where I think it is due to merit.

:24:31. > :24:37.You must consider that to have been a huge honour? The eyes of the world

:24:38. > :24:40.were watching London for the funeral, billions of people watching

:24:41. > :24:44.screens around the world, which must have put tremendous pressure on you

:24:45. > :24:49.but the crowds out on the street that day... Can you sum up for me

:24:50. > :24:55.what it was like to be there in that moment surrounded by it?

:24:56. > :24:59.As you can imagine, we were professional soldiers and the first

:25:00. > :25:02.Battalion Welsh Guards, we were probably the underdogs in the

:25:03. > :25:08.household division but as you can imagine, we strive to achieve a lot

:25:09. > :25:12.of things in the Welsh Guards and to do something like this and to be

:25:13. > :25:15.involved in something like this was massive for the Battalion and as you

:25:16. > :25:18.can imagine the first time we actually met the public was on the

:25:19. > :25:23.morning because we were quite isolated for the whole week when we

:25:24. > :25:28.were rehearsing. As we were coming out of Kensington Palace, the

:25:29. > :25:34.initial response by the public was... It set the tone for the whole

:25:35. > :25:40.4.5 miles. That first scream of that lady who screamed," Diana, I love

:25:41. > :25:45.you", affected a lot of us, and thinking back now, to be honest,

:25:46. > :25:48.looking at it on TV, it was a poignant moment that set the tone

:25:49. > :25:53.for the whole march. Her sons have spoken in the past couple of weeks

:25:54. > :25:58.about the fact they had to follow the coffin, we are seeing pictures

:25:59. > :26:02.of that now, what are you thinking seeing those boys at the time having

:26:03. > :26:10.to do that as well hearing the screams and seeing the crowds?

:26:11. > :26:15.The thing was, when we were going up The Mall and we saw the boys and we

:26:16. > :26:19.passed the boys and they joined the back of the procession, it must have

:26:20. > :26:24.been a massive thing for these two young boys. It's one of those things

:26:25. > :26:28.where you could relate to it if you lost a sibling, if you have lost

:26:29. > :26:35.your mother, how much pain they must have been going through to be... To

:26:36. > :26:39.do what they did. You could tell what kind of characters these young

:26:40. > :26:46.lads were and how much they were more like their mother and you can't

:26:47. > :26:50.ask any more for these young lads -- from these young lads. They strived

:26:51. > :26:54.and they have become people the whole world admires. They were

:26:55. > :27:00.thereby those gates looking at some of the tributes to the their mother

:27:01. > :27:03.yesterday. Thanks for joining us for your memories and tributes 20 years

:38:02. > :38:09.wire. You have this three-month lead time finishing in the wee small

:38:10. > :38:16.hours later tonight. It is a bit crazy. The prices are bit crazy.

:38:17. > :38:23.However I heard you talking about the million pound toilet. Perhaps it

:38:24. > :38:27.is not that crazy. The prices are higher in England than anywhere

:38:28. > :38:38.else. We are hearing a player is looking to be sold to the sound of

:38:39. > :38:46.30-40% more to England. That is because the television deals are so

:38:47. > :38:48.large in England. Sunderland got more money for relegation and

:38:49. > :38:54.finishing bottom of the Premier League last year than Bayern Munich,

:38:55. > :39:01.champions of Europe. That was 94 million. The prices of a premium

:39:02. > :39:05.unfortunately, you pay the price for an ?8.3 billion success story. One

:39:06. > :39:10.of the things that has changed in the last two years is fans are more

:39:11. > :39:16.involved. Players are being tracked across the world. We saw the airline

:39:17. > :39:24.tracking website crash when Liverpool fans were trying to follow

:39:25. > :39:32.van Dyche to Liverpool. And Riyadh Mahrez was spotted in an airport in

:39:33. > :39:39.Paris. In the last few hours, that was tweeted. Mahrez in an airport in

:39:40. > :39:45.Paris. It is not like we can keep movements secret any more. We never

:39:46. > :39:53.could. Years ago I was transferring a player who could go to either

:39:54. > :40:13.Arsenal or Everton. We used to do these deals in motorway stations. I

:40:14. > :40:17.don't know why. I sat in a service station with Tony doing a deal with

:40:18. > :40:20.Everton with 10-20 football fans around us peering over the table

:40:21. > :40:24.say, "Is that what you're getting, that's good." We used to meet in

:40:25. > :40:28.pubs and windy corners at the top of the M1. We have social media today.

:40:29. > :40:31.People try to track players and agents and where they are going. But

:40:32. > :40:36.essentially, these deals are done these days largely behind closed

:40:37. > :40:41.doors using private jets. It is not that difficult to keep them, to a

:40:42. > :40:45.degree, in a place where no one knows what is going on to the very

:40:46. > :40:49.end. How significant is it for Philippe Coutinho and Liverpool that

:40:50. > :40:54.the Spanish window does not close until tomorrow? I thought about that

:40:55. > :40:57.when I was looking through all of the statistics of the past few days.

:40:58. > :41:04.I think you have to believe Liverpool, the Fenway group, I

:41:05. > :41:07.substantially wealthy. When they say there is no deal, I think there will

:41:08. > :41:12.be no deal for Philippe Coutinho, not in this window. Watch in

:41:13. > :41:17.January. Adjusting to talk to you. It will be interesting for the next

:41:18. > :41:21.few hours. Thank you. You can follow all of the deals on the BBC sport

:41:22. > :41:27.website. There will be a live page until the window closes at 11pm in

:41:28. > :41:33.England and 12 at night in Scotland. There is a special football focus on

:41:34. > :41:38.BBC One with Dan. Or just go to your nearest service station and see a

:41:39. > :41:42.deal. Go in a website and see where people are going to be you can

:41:43. > :41:52.follow them through the sky to see where they land. Can you? Yes!

:41:53. > :41:55.Kyle Edmund is the last British hope at the US Open.

:41:56. > :41:58.He beat American Steve Johnson in straight sets to get

:41:59. > :42:02.Aljaz Bedene and Cameron Norrie both went out though.

:42:03. > :42:04.Rain meant they were still completing the first

:42:05. > :42:09.He injured his shoulder losing to fellow Australian John Millman.

:42:10. > :42:13.It didn't seem to hamper him though when he smashed his racket

:42:14. > :42:14.beyond repair after losing the third set.

:42:15. > :42:18.Kyrios is one of a number of players to have suffered injury trouble

:42:19. > :42:21.recently, with five top players having withdrawn from this year's US

:42:22. > :42:26.I think the leaders we have today in the sport are open in these

:42:27. > :42:30.conversations. They are concerned about the health of the players and

:42:31. > :42:33.the success of tennis. I think next week as we have these meetings

:42:34. > :42:37.together, I know this is on the document to be discussed. I am sure

:42:38. > :42:44.we will have some robust conversations. Again, I think all

:42:45. > :42:45.seven governing bodies are stakeholders in this conversation.

:42:46. > :42:48.Caroline Wozniacki is out but another former world number one

:42:49. > :42:50.Maria Sharapova is through to the third round.

:42:51. > :42:53.The Russian, playing her first Grand Slam since a 15-month doping

:42:54. > :42:56.ban, came from a set down to beat Timea Babos.

:42:57. > :43:03.There is also the realistic understanding that, OK,

:43:04. > :43:07.I have been in this situation for a while, it will take some time.

:43:08. > :43:10.Of course, managing expectations is part of it and learning

:43:11. > :43:14.during the match is something that I haven't done.

:43:15. > :43:18.It may be possible to do a pitchside saliva test for concussion

:43:19. > :43:21.in the next few years if a new study is successful.

:43:22. > :43:23.Scientists at the University of Birmingham want to make

:43:24. > :43:26.a hand-held test which could provide instant results so they're taking

:43:27. > :43:29.saliva samples from players in the top two tiers

:43:30. > :43:34.It's the biggest study of its kind and could revolutionise the way head

:43:35. > :43:44.What we want is to have a portable pitch-side test which can be used

:43:45. > :43:47.by doctors, if you want, in a professional game,

:43:48. > :43:50.or potentially the parent, if they work as well as we hope,

:43:51. > :43:53.to see whether their son or daughter has had a concussion,

:43:54. > :43:56.or a school nurse potentially to assess whether someone has had

:43:57. > :44:07.Chris Froome has taken a big step towards winning the Vuelta a Espana

:44:08. > :44:10.title as he opened up a big lead on the field

:44:11. > :44:15.Froome is aiming to become the first rider to win the Tour de France

:44:16. > :44:25.and Vuelta in the same year since Frenchman Bernard Ee-no in 1978.

:44:26. > :44:34.I mentioned Riyadh Mahrez in the airport in Paris. You might expect

:44:35. > :44:39.him to go to Italy or the transfer. The fan who took the picture said he

:44:40. > :44:44.was flying to Spain, to Barcelona, in fact. I thought he was going to a

:44:45. > :44:46.service station. Clearly not. We will find out this time tomorrow.

:44:47. > :45:02.Thank you. In the past hour the betting company

:45:03. > :45:06.Ladbroves Coral has... There is a government review due the sector

:45:07. > :45:12.operates. Gambling has traditionally been big business in Britain. In the

:45:13. > :45:18.last year 63% of adults have had a bet either online or on the high

:45:19. > :45:21.street. It gave the sector a gross yield of ?13.8 billion, that's the

:45:22. > :45:26.money retained after winnings are paid out. It went on to pay more

:45:27. > :45:31.than 100,000 people in the UK directly employed within the

:45:32. > :45:36.industry. There has been criticism of the sector, it's reported more

:45:37. > :45:40.than 2 million people in the UK are addicted to or at risk of a gambling

:45:41. > :45:45.addiction. We are joined by the CEO of Ladbrokes Coral, Jim Molan. Good

:45:46. > :45:51.morning. Talk us through this figures, are you satisfied that

:45:52. > :45:56.these figures. We are in courage by them -- these figures. Ten months

:45:57. > :46:01.ago -- we are in encouraged by them. There was a merger and we were

:46:02. > :46:07.concerned whether that would affect operations but I'm delighted with

:46:08. > :46:12.the team. I think we need to be encouraged. I've been having a look

:46:13. > :46:15.at the initial figures, haven't had a chance to examine them closely,

:46:16. > :46:19.but it looks like most of the increase is from online betting

:46:20. > :46:26.through your phone rather than on the high street. It's interesting, I

:46:27. > :46:30.wouldn't separate the retail and digital side, bearing in mind 1.3

:46:31. > :46:34.million digital customers, which is why we've got these encouraging

:46:35. > :46:39.digital numbers, actually came from a retail estate. The old way of

:46:40. > :46:44.looking at it with retail and digital is the wrong way, we should

:46:45. > :46:47.look at it as a whole, which is why the numbers are so encouraging. You

:46:48. > :46:51.are being looked at closely as an industry and we expect that report

:46:52. > :46:55.in the next few weeks into the future of gambling and the use of

:46:56. > :46:58.these fixed odds betting machines in shops has been particularly

:46:59. > :47:02.controversial. You are facing a clampdown on those surely, are you

:47:03. > :47:07.expecting that? All we really want is certainty. From a business

:47:08. > :47:13.planning perspective we want certainty. Ladbrokes Coral employ

:47:14. > :47:16.25,000 people and they need certainty, as does the sector,

:47:17. > :47:20.because we are a significant contributor to the revenues, we

:47:21. > :47:24.support the racing industry and I think all those parties are involved

:47:25. > :47:28.in that so certainty is an important thing for us. You can understand

:47:29. > :47:31.certainty as a business but there are lots of support groups and

:47:32. > :47:35.families who have told us on Breakfast they are worried about the

:47:36. > :47:44.addictive, allegedly addictive nature of these machines and that it

:47:45. > :47:48.has a devastating effect on people's lives. I have to say I'm very

:47:49. > :47:52.encouraged by the BBC's introduction of this when you spoke about the act

:47:53. > :47:55.risk two million and not the problem gamblers, for the first time a

:47:56. > :47:59.really balanced view on it. We take it seriously and what we want to do

:48:00. > :48:06.is make sure that we don't become the black dog in the debate with

:48:07. > :48:12.these fixed odds terminals. We have to look at in the round. Ladbrokes

:48:13. > :48:15.Coral are doing that. We need a sensible debate about the facts,

:48:16. > :48:21.which is important. We've reported in the last hour or so that one of

:48:22. > :48:25.your rivals, 888, are being fined for apparently not protecting

:48:26. > :48:29.customers enough, vulnerable customers. It suggests there is a

:48:30. > :48:33.serious intention to crack down on what all of you do and I'm noting

:48:34. > :48:39.that in your report this morning, in your results, the Competition and

:48:40. > :48:43.Markets Authority are investigating something that you have been up to

:48:44. > :48:48.as well. Do you think you're being scrutinised extremely closely right

:48:49. > :48:51.now? I don't, I think the gambling commission are right in their

:48:52. > :48:55.approach and we support that. We are on a journey and we have our own

:48:56. > :49:01.complaints with regard to the CMA, thy report, which was some time ago

:49:02. > :49:09.-- their report. It's a continuing process. I welcome the forensics. We

:49:10. > :49:13.take responsible gambling seriously but also from a business

:49:14. > :49:17.perspective, irresponsible gambling behaviour and problem gambling isn't

:49:18. > :49:22.good for business. We are working closely with the GC on this journey

:49:23. > :49:26.where you can come and it can be a pastime. Jim Molan from Ladbrokes

:49:27. > :49:30.Coral, thanks for joining us on Breakfast.

:49:31. > :49:36.It is always a good time to talk to Carol to find out what's happening

:49:37. > :49:40.with the weather. Sunshine and showers so I'm not going to be upset

:49:41. > :49:46.by that picture, even though it's remarkable. It's beautiful, isn't it

:49:47. > :49:49.crazy good morning. Sunshine and showers is right, that's the

:49:50. > :49:54.forecast today -- isn't it crazy good morning. Some have been heavy

:49:55. > :49:58.overnight and some have thunder and lightning embedded -- isn't it?

:49:59. > :50:05.. The heaviest showers have been in parts of Lancashire. They have been

:50:06. > :50:10.coming in through the night, torrential, intense downpours and

:50:11. > :50:13.it's the same too, heavy ones in parts of north-west Wales so if

:50:14. > :50:17.you're travelling then bear that in mind, you could run into surface

:50:18. > :50:23.water issues. A largely dry start for most of the UK, a chilly one,

:50:24. > :50:27.the sun is out but through the date showers will develop more widely and

:50:28. > :50:31.some could be heavy, thundery with hail -- day. In between there will

:50:32. > :50:36.be sunshine. In the south-eastern quarter, parts of it didn't get

:50:37. > :50:41.above 13 Celsius yesterday. Today we're back up to 20 or 21. If you're

:50:42. > :50:45.out of the showers in the sunshine, wherever you are it won't feel too

:50:46. > :50:49.bad at all and there will be sunshine in between those showers

:50:50. > :50:52.but if you catch a shower you will know all about it. Only slowly

:50:53. > :50:55.through the evening and overnight we start to lose those showers but

:50:56. > :50:59.there will still be clusters close to the coast and under clearing

:51:00. > :51:03.skies we'll have patchy mist and fog forming, but also a cool night.

:51:04. > :51:09.These temperatures, eight to 13, they what you can expect in towns

:51:10. > :51:12.and cities. These temperatures, one to four, really represent the

:51:13. > :51:15.countryside, so there will be a touch of frost in some sheltered

:51:16. > :51:25.areas tonight. That means tomorrow morning it's a cold start but a

:51:26. > :51:28.beautiful one under clear skies, there will be a lot of sunshine

:51:29. > :51:31.around. Through the day we'll see further showers develop especially

:51:32. > :51:34.from south-east Scotland to south-east England but they are

:51:35. > :51:38.showers, not all of us will catch one, and you can see a lot of dry

:51:39. > :51:42.weather, fewer showers in the west and temperatures, 14 to 21. We still

:51:43. > :51:45.have a ridge of high pressure across our shores through the night and

:51:46. > :51:48.into Saturday, which means once again it's going to be a chilly

:51:49. > :51:52.night with some local grass frost and it's not until Sunday that we

:51:53. > :51:55.see the arrival of some weather fronts. On Saturday, don't forget

:51:56. > :51:59.that chilly start, a touch of frost here and there but mostly in rural

:52:00. > :52:03.areas. A lot of sunshine, a log of dry weather on Saturday. You could

:52:04. > :52:07.catch the odd shower in the south-east but that will be the

:52:08. > :52:10.exception rather than the rule -- a lot of. Late in the day the cloud

:52:11. > :52:14.thickens into the west, heralding the arrival of weather fronts

:52:15. > :52:18.bearing cloud, rain and strengthening winds. The further

:52:19. > :52:22.east you travel during the course of Sunday, the drier and sunnier it's

:52:23. > :52:26.going to be and the further south east you travel, the warmer it's

:52:27. > :52:31.going to be as well. There will be a lot of dry weather around if you

:52:32. > :52:35.skip the showers. Naga and On, I don't know if you noticed on the

:52:36. > :52:44.chart, torrential rain in Blackpool and nothing in Liverpool over the

:52:45. > :52:51.last few hours -- Naga and Jon. Strangely isolated! I was in Milton

:52:52. > :52:55.Keynes yesterday, showers north and showers south, it skirted the golf

:52:56. > :52:58.course I was on. That's the nature of showers, some of us miss them all

:52:59. > :53:00.together. Thanks very much, Carol. There are yet more signs

:53:01. > :53:10.of a slowing housing What have you seen if you're looking

:53:11. > :53:14.to buy you might be happy with a slowing market but if you're looking

:53:15. > :53:16.to sell it could be trickier, this morning we are looking at fewer

:53:17. > :53:18.sellers with the day we've got. There've been quite a few

:53:19. > :53:21.indications coming through showing that the housing market has started

:53:22. > :53:24.to slow sharply since the middle This latest data is from

:53:25. > :53:27.the body that represents It says the number of houses

:53:28. > :53:31.being put on the market fell to its lowest level in July since it

:53:32. > :53:35.started keeping records in 2002. This is on the back of data from one

:53:36. > :53:39.of our biggest mortgage providers. According to Nationwide,

:53:40. > :53:41.house prices fell a smidgen On the whole, house price growth

:53:42. > :53:53.over a year has been slowing as well house prices

:53:54. > :53:56.now at around 2%. Lucian Cook, head of research

:53:57. > :54:12.at property group Savills Good morning. Do you guys see a

:54:13. > :54:16.slowing down? I think undoubtedly there is a slowdown in the housing

:54:17. > :54:20.market and I think there's quite a few things behind that. Since the

:54:21. > :54:24.credit current people are moving less often, especially people

:54:25. > :54:28.trading up the ladder, we have mortgage regulation which restricts

:54:29. > :54:32.them -- credit crunch. Buy to let have been -- by the let investors

:54:33. > :54:37.have been affected by taxation and mortgage regulation so their numbers

:54:38. > :54:40.are down that buy to let. And in London, long period of house price

:54:41. > :54:45.growth and people are beginning to hit up the limits of what they can

:54:46. > :54:49.borrow -- by the let. It affect how many people can move and who can

:54:50. > :54:52.move -- buy to let. Then you have economic and political uncertainty

:54:53. > :54:58.as a result of Brexit making people more cautious. With the statistics

:54:59. > :55:02.in July, fewer people putting their houses on the market, white? All of

:55:03. > :55:06.those reasons before and people have become that much more cautious. Is

:55:07. > :55:11.it a good thing? If it means house price growth isn't as much as it was

:55:12. > :55:16.before, how often we talk about first time buyers getting on the

:55:17. > :55:22.market is amazing, good for them? Low-level first house price growth

:55:23. > :55:26.is good, difficulties for house -- first-time house buyers getting on

:55:27. > :55:35.the market. The average in London for a first house is pushing up

:55:36. > :55:42.?100,000. I suppose what is different is. Transactions is about

:55:43. > :55:51.the vibrancy of the market and people's ability to move. If you

:55:52. > :55:55.have fewer houses to choose from when you're hunting around, could

:55:56. > :56:00.that mean you end up with more buyers for that one warehouse you

:56:01. > :56:02.really like? Do you see pockets of different things happening to house

:56:03. > :56:07.prices? There's different things happening in different markets but

:56:08. > :56:13.one of the things we know from some of the lead indicators, take it from

:56:14. > :56:19.the RC IS, buyer enquiries are muted so the two are largely moving in

:56:20. > :56:23.unison. Countrywide, the strongest markets at the moment, all markets

:56:24. > :56:26.have levels of house price growth that have weakened in all markets

:56:27. > :56:31.but generally the strongest market tends to be that market of Middle

:56:32. > :56:36.England. It used to be London, London has slowed significantly to

:56:37. > :56:40.the point where London house price growth is around 1.2%, the same as

:56:41. > :56:46.north-east England where there are clearly different things going on. A

:56:47. > :56:53.buyer's market or a seller's? In a lot of the country it has moved to

:56:54. > :56:57.be a buyer's. Thanks very much. We will keep an eye on this in the

:56:58. > :56:59.coming months. Often used as a bellwether to the economy, how we

:57:00. > :57:00.feel about house prices. Time now to get the news,

:57:01. > :00:25.travel and weather where you are. This is Breakfast with

:03:33. > :03:35.try to settle for good, for now at least, this issue around her

:03:43. > :03:46.she was prepared to continue as Prime Minister as long as they

:03:57. > :03:59.going to fight the next election for the Tories. To be honest, when asked

:04:00. > :04:01.the question, she couldn't really say anything but that. To say that

:09:34. > :09:36.night. Take us back, will you, to when the news was filtering through

:09:37. > :09:44.to you, not to the public, that there had been an accident. Yes, I

:09:45. > :09:49.was on holiday, I was 250 miles away in Devon, and I had promised our

:09:50. > :09:52.little girl, who was seven, that you have your mum now for the next

:09:53. > :09:56.couple of weeks, which was foolishly to say. The phone went somewhere

:09:57. > :09:59.between half past 12 and one o'clock, and at first the report

:10:00. > :10:04.suggested that Diana had survived the crash and it wasn't too serious

:10:05. > :10:09.from her point of view, but very quickly it became apparent as I flew

:10:10. > :10:14.up to London in a taxi that it was much more serious. In fact the news

:10:15. > :10:18.came from the far east via the then Foreign Secretary, Robin Cook, that

:10:19. > :10:21.she was dead, but we couldn't reveal that until it was officially

:10:22. > :10:25.confirmed, so the tone of the coverage I was listening to on the

:10:26. > :10:32.radio changed, and I knew why it had changed. I got to the Television

:10:33. > :10:35.Centre at the BBC just before six, and started broadcasting on this

:10:36. > :10:39.terrible tragedy, obviously, for the boys and for the nation, and the

:10:40. > :10:52.beginning of the worst week of the Queen's rain. -- reign. And it

:10:53. > :10:56.became clear how much Princess Diana's death affected the country

:10:57. > :11:03.as a whole, and the reactions we saw from senior members of state. Yes,

:11:04. > :11:08.it was extraordinary. You can see now 20 years on that some people are

:11:09. > :11:12.still coming to remember her. But on those days afterwards, it was

:11:13. > :11:16.extraordinary. Looking back, I do think it was a kind of mass

:11:17. > :11:20.hysteria. There was real grief, though, and I saw that for myself

:11:21. > :11:24.having been almost trapped at the BBC where they wanted me in the

:11:25. > :11:30.studio nonstop talking for about 24 hours. I said, I am a reporter, I do

:11:31. > :11:34.need to go down and see the atmosphere and see it for myself,

:11:35. > :11:39.and when I got to St James's Palace, I got out of the taxi and spoke to a

:11:40. > :11:43.man, I remember he had a beard, I said good evening, and he burst into

:11:44. > :11:49.tears. And I thought, my goodness, this is real, what is happening. And

:11:50. > :11:52.that spread throughout the week until we had this ocean of flowers

:11:53. > :11:58.Buckingham Palace. You mentioned that it was the worst week of the

:11:59. > :12:01.Queen's reign. What Diana's death did to the image of the monarchy,

:12:02. > :12:08.that was a real turning point, wasn't it? It was. It wasn't helped

:12:09. > :12:13.by the fact that the Palace got everything wrong that week in terms

:12:14. > :12:17.of planning the funeral. I know from speaking to people close to the

:12:18. > :12:21.Queen that week that by Wednesday, when the Queen was up at Balmoral,

:12:22. > :12:24.quite rightly comforting her grandsons, there was a feeling among

:12:25. > :12:27.the senior courtiers that they had lost it, they had got it so wrong,

:12:28. > :12:34.and there might be some kind of mutiny or at least jeering when and

:12:35. > :12:37.if she came back to London. It transpired rather differently, she

:12:38. > :12:43.came down and she made peace with her people on the eve of the

:12:44. > :12:48.funeral. But it has had a profound effect, and I think the lasting

:12:49. > :12:54.legacy of Diana is a little more compassion, and of course her boys,

:12:55. > :12:58.and carry on her work, looking after vulnerable people. That is what the

:12:59. > :13:04.charity is about and that is what Diana was about. With the funeral of

:13:05. > :13:10.course we saw the outpouring of grief, in the nation as well, but

:13:11. > :13:15.this from many people, most people who had never met Princess Diana.

:13:16. > :13:25.You had, in interviews, and spent time with her. What did you garner

:13:26. > :13:29.from your many meetings with her? She was a very complex woman. I met

:13:30. > :13:33.her here at the Palace, one-to-one in her drawing room there, on a

:13:34. > :13:36.number of occasions, we would chat forever, it was usually mean who

:13:37. > :13:43.would say, I think I ought to go now. After the break-up of her

:13:44. > :13:47.marriage, she was quite lonely, and solo here. She was mischievous,

:13:48. > :13:52.funny, much more intelligent than she made out. She said she was as

:13:53. > :13:57.thick as two short planks, but she wasn't. She was shrewd, she could be

:13:58. > :14:01.manipulative and annoying, one minute you would be sitting whether

:14:02. > :14:06.having coughing, and the next day we would be at some way she would blank

:14:20. > :14:23.message, do carry on wearing red, because it suits you. What I

:14:38. > :14:40.the Conservatives into the next general election and has rejected

:14:41. > :14:43.reports she'll step down Today marks 20 years since the death

:14:44. > :14:52.of Diana, Princess of Wales. Her legacy will be celebrated later

:14:53. > :15:08.by many of the charities Last day of August, which means it

:15:09. > :15:14.is the last day of meteorological summer. Hopefully some will broadly

:15:15. > :15:21.continue, but for Carol, it is nearly over.

:15:22. > :15:28.Yes, and that is so we can measure like for like. Today, the weather is

:15:29. > :15:32.in particularly some-like, although it will be better for some than

:15:33. > :15:37.yesterday. We are looking at a mixture of sunshine and showers.

:15:38. > :15:45.First thing this morning, we start on a dry and brain note across many

:15:46. > :15:49.areas -- a dry and bright note. Showers across Lancashire have been

:15:50. > :15:55.heavy and intense. A similar story across parts of north-west Wales.

:15:56. > :15:57.After a chilly start, the showers develop more widely through the day

:15:58. > :16:06.and anywhere could catch one. In between them all, there will be

:16:07. > :16:14.some sunshine and in the sunshine, it will still pleasant. In the

:16:15. > :16:24.south-east, we are back to where we should be, into the high teens and

:16:25. > :16:29.low 20s. For Wales, England and Scotland, there are still the

:16:30. > :16:33.potential for some of the showers to be heavy and thundery, with hail.

:16:34. > :16:37.Through the evening and overnight, we slowly lose most of the showers.

:16:38. > :16:42.A few clusters remain closed to the coast. We will see patently is done

:16:43. > :16:50.fog forming, but under clear skies, it will be a cool night. In the

:16:51. > :16:55.countryside, we could see temperatures low enough for a touch

:16:56. > :16:59.of grass frost. Whatever way you look at it, tomorrow will be a

:17:00. > :17:20.chilly start, but a beautiful one with a lot of sunshine. Not all of

:17:21. > :17:23.us will catch a shower. As we move from Friday to Saturday, we have

:17:24. > :17:28.this ridge of high pressure across us. Another cool night in prospect.

:17:29. > :17:32.It is not until later Saturday and Sunday, we see this weather front

:17:33. > :17:43.coming in from the Atlantic. The wind will strengthen. A lot of dry

:17:44. > :17:48.weather. You could see the odd rogue showers somewhere in the south-east,

:17:49. > :17:52.but it will be the exception rather than the rule. And it will feel

:17:53. > :17:57.pleasant in light breezes. Later in the day, the cloud will thicken,

:17:58. > :18:03.heralding the arrival of that weather front. That will introduce

:18:04. > :18:07.more rain and a strengthening wind. Through Sunday, it will push

:18:08. > :18:09.eastwards. The further east you are, the drier and warmer it is likely to

:18:10. > :18:19.be. The rain has crept over more than it

:18:20. > :18:27.did on Sunday. But it could still retreat. Use the power, Carol! We

:18:28. > :18:33.know you have it, you just use it sparingly sometimes. Wouldn't that

:18:34. > :18:36.be a fabulous power to have? Amazing! Thanks very much.

:18:37. > :18:37.Today's the deadline for working parents

:18:38. > :18:40.of three and four-year-olds in England to apply for 30 hours

:18:41. > :18:47.But there are worries it may lead to higher costs for parents

:18:48. > :18:49.and nursery closures, according to an education charity.

:18:50. > :18:51.The survey by the Pre-school Learning Alliance suggests

:18:52. > :18:53.three-quarters of childcare providers think the scheme has been

:18:54. > :18:58.underfunded and they may struggle to deliver the hours.

:18:59. > :19:00.But the Government says pilot schemes have shown it is possible.

:19:01. > :19:03.We can speak to the Minister for Children and Families,

:19:04. > :19:06.Robert Goodwill, who joins us from a nursery in York which has

:19:07. > :19:08.been part of the pilot scheme, and the owner Lesley Calvert

:19:09. > :19:26.You have been involved in this pilot, trying to provide 30 of hours

:19:27. > :19:30.a week. How has it gone for you? It's gone very well. Parents have

:19:31. > :19:35.accepted it well and they have been able to go back to work for longer

:19:36. > :19:39.as well as take up employment. So if the government came to you and said,

:19:40. > :19:46.it is working, but what else can we do to make it better for the

:19:47. > :19:49.country, what would you recommend? Working in partnership with the

:19:50. > :19:55.local authority as well as other providers was a big push for us

:19:56. > :19:59.during the trial period. We were able to help each other work through

:20:00. > :20:05.the problems we faced, which has made it better for us to start next

:20:06. > :20:08.week with the roll-out. Some nurseries are saying they will

:20:09. > :20:11.struggle to provide these 30 hours. They are worried about increased

:20:12. > :20:15.costs and they think the whole thing might end up costing parents more.

:20:16. > :20:25.It has worked for you, but can you understand the concerns? Can you

:20:26. > :20:31.hear me? I was just saying that some nurseries think they will struggle

:20:32. > :20:39.to pay for it. Can you understand those concerns? I think we have lost

:20:40. > :20:44.them. The line to York has failed us. We will try to get them back.

:20:45. > :20:46.Let's get more on that record fine for online

:20:47. > :20:59.This is about gambling companies which are under an obligation to

:21:00. > :21:08.protect vulnerable customers. Particularly in an area called self

:21:09. > :21:11.exclusion where if you are coming online in poker, roulette, bingo,

:21:12. > :21:14.that kind of stuff, if you don't want to access your account for a

:21:15. > :21:18.certain period of time, maybe because you feel like you have been

:21:19. > :21:22.doing it too much, you tick a box to say you don't want to do that and

:21:23. > :21:26.the account will be frozen. Gambling companies have to offer this. But

:21:27. > :21:30.the gambling commission found that 7000 customers at eight a date had

:21:31. > :21:36.done that, but were still able to access their account over a year,

:21:37. > :21:40.where 888 did not pick up on the fact that they were still accessing

:21:41. > :21:46.their account. They were depositing ?3.5 million, and they were letting

:21:47. > :21:53.it, winning or losing it and then betting against, ?50 million worth

:21:54. > :21:58.of bets were placed. Just for 7000 customers? Yes. And at some point,

:21:59. > :22:02.they have said, I don't want access to my account. So the gambling

:22:03. > :22:06.commission understandably say that 888 haven't reached the standards

:22:07. > :22:09.they should reach by not recognising that it was a technical fault that

:22:10. > :22:12.meant it happened, but they didn't pick up on the fact that lots of

:22:13. > :22:17.customers who didn't want to gamble with gambling. And this is a

:22:18. > :22:20.sensitive time for the industry, because the way they look after

:22:21. > :22:25.people who might have a gambling problem is under great scrutiny.

:22:26. > :22:28.Completely. We spoke to the boss of Ladbrokes earlier and they were one

:22:29. > :22:32.of many gambling firms who are being looked at at the minute for various

:22:33. > :22:37.ways they are treating their customers. The Competition and

:22:38. > :22:43.Markets Authority are looking at those offers you see" gamble with

:22:44. > :22:47.us, we will double your money if you get a certain amount", but they hold

:22:48. > :22:52.onto your money for a certain amount of time. So there are various

:22:53. > :23:00.different authorities. They are looking at the gambling industry

:23:01. > :23:06.closely. It has been a busy morning. You can always bet on that. We have

:23:07. > :23:09.heard a lot in the last week of those terrible floods on the other

:23:10. > :23:13.side of the Atlantic in the southern United States, but we are now go to

:23:14. > :23:16.talk about some potentially even more disastrous weather conditions

:23:17. > :23:20.on the other side of the world in India, Nepal and Bangladesh in the

:23:24. > :23:28.their homes. More than 1000 people have died and the Red Cross has

:23:29. > :23:32.described the situation is one of the worst regional humanitarian

:23:33. > :23:35.crises in years. We spoke to Hannah Butler from the Red Cross, who is at

:23:36. > :23:37.a camp for displaced people in northern India. She brought us up to

:23:38. > :23:48.date. I am in a north-eastern state of

:23:49. > :23:51.India. Prior to that I was in Bihar, which is the worst affected state by

:23:52. > :23:57.the floods and also one of the poorer states in India. The flooding

:23:58. > :24:02.hit a couple of months ago in Bihar, and there are still a lot of water

:24:03. > :24:07.and a lot of damage and a lot of people still out of their homes. The

:24:08. > :24:12.last surviving and getting on with things as well as they can, but

:24:13. > :24:18.there has been a lot of damage. The numbers are huge. Across India,

:24:19. > :24:23.Bangladesh and Nepal, 41 people -- 41 million people are affected. And

:24:24. > :24:28.the damage is such that while people are looking after each other and

:24:29. > :24:32.surviving initially, they're coping mechanisms are going to be stretched

:24:33. > :24:37.and they will soon start needing help with shelter with water, with

:24:38. > :24:43.food, with helping them get back onto their feet because these floods

:24:44. > :24:53.have washed away homes and everything in them in Bihar a couple

:24:54. > :24:58.of days ago, it looked like a river. And then someone would come up and

:24:59. > :25:02.tell me, this is where my house was. We have seen pictures of the

:25:03. > :25:06.flooding and water washing down streets, carrying people and

:25:07. > :25:10.positions with it. We have seen a lot of pictures out of the United

:25:11. > :25:14.States with tropical storm Harvey and the American response to that

:25:15. > :25:19.disaster. But I suppose responding to a disaster where you are is much

:25:20. > :25:23.more difficult. Is it possible to compare the way they have been able

:25:24. > :25:29.to deal with things where you are in northern India? What is going on in

:25:30. > :25:36.the United States is terrible as well, like what is going on here.

:25:37. > :25:40.Here in India, Bangladesh and Nepal, the numbers are significant and the

:25:41. > :25:45.infrastructure is such that it is hard to respond and get the people.

:25:46. > :25:50.A community I met a couple of days ago were flooded two weeks ago and

:25:51. > :25:58.they only got access by road two or three days ago. And that time, they

:25:59. > :26:01.were provided by a from the Indian government. It's a very different

:26:02. > :26:07.landscape, different to rain, different way of working. But like

:26:08. > :26:12.in the States, flooding is happening and it is important that we caff

:26:13. > :26:17.star eye over this side of the world to see what is going on. Do you feel

:26:18. > :26:23.like you are getting to grips with it? There is a long way to go,

:26:24. > :26:30.because the need is a huge and needs will grow. The disaster is not over

:26:31. > :26:34.when the floodwaters recede. At this stage, assessments are still being

:26:35. > :26:36.carried out and as the waters are receding, we are getting a clearer

:26:37. > :26:52.idea of the extent of the damage. Let's try to get the children's

:26:53. > :26:57.minister Robert Goodwill back to talk about the free health care.

:26:58. > :30:26.Time now to get the news, travel and weather where you are.

:30:27. > :30:32.Hello, this is Breakfast, with Naga Munchetty and Jon Kay.

:30:33. > :30:35.Theresa May says she wants to lead the Conservatives

:30:36. > :30:37.into the next general election, saying she's in it

:30:38. > :30:43.The Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson has given his support but backbench

:30:44. > :30:47.Conservative MPs have told the BBC they're sceptical she'll be

:30:48. > :30:50.able to stay in the job until the next general election.

:30:51. > :30:56.The Prime Minister is currently on a three day trip to Japan.

:30:57. > :30:59.The brother of the Manchester Arena bomber will go on trial in Libya

:31:00. > :31:01.in the next two months, in connection with the attack,

:31:02. > :31:06.Hashem Abedi was arrested in Libya shortly after the bombing in May,

:31:07. > :31:10.carried out by his brother, Salman.

:31:11. > :31:16.The prosecutor in the case said their father has been released.

:31:17. > :31:19.At least five people have died and more than 40 are thought to be

:31:20. > :31:21.trapped beneath the rubble of a residential building,

:31:22. > :31:23.which has collapsed in the Indian city of Mumbai.

:31:24. > :31:30.The four-storey building stood in the densely

:31:31. > :31:33.It gave way after days of heavy monsoon rains,

:31:34. > :31:36.which have already resulted in at least ten deaths in the area.

:31:37. > :31:39.The first treatment to redesign a patient's own immune system

:31:40. > :31:45.so that it attacks cancer has been approved in the United States.

:31:46. > :31:48.The drug is made by extracting white blood cells from the patient,

:31:49. > :31:50.which are then genetically reprogrammed to seek out

:31:51. > :31:55.The US Food and Drug Administration said the decision was a historic

:31:56. > :31:59.moment and medicine is now "entering a new frontier".

:32:00. > :32:02.The online gambling firm 888 has been fined ?7.8 million for failing

:32:03. > :32:09.The Gambling Commission found more than 7,000 customers who'd opted out

:32:10. > :32:17.of playing were still able to access their accounts.

:32:18. > :32:18.From tomorrow, working parents of three and four-year-olds

:32:19. > :32:26.in England will be able to get 30 hours of free childcare.

:32:27. > :32:29.The deadline to apply is today, but the run-up to the new system

:32:30. > :32:33.We can speak to the Minister for Children and Families,

:32:34. > :32:36.Robert Goodwill, who joins us from a nursery in York which has

:32:37. > :32:38.been part of the pilot scheme, and the owner Lesley Calvert

:32:39. > :32:51.You were seeing it is functioning at your nurse had some nurseries are

:32:52. > :32:55.saying they are going to have to close because they cannot afford to

:32:56. > :33:01.give this extra help to families. What would you say to them? We have

:33:02. > :33:05.had to do some careful budgeting on a monthly basis anyway to make a

:33:06. > :33:13.sustainable and you have to carry on doing that in partnership with the

:33:14. > :33:18.local authority. Hopefully it will work like we have shown it can work

:33:19. > :33:24.during the pilot scheme. We can talk to the minister next year. Robert

:33:25. > :33:30.Goodwill, you are putting this in place. The headline sounds great,

:33:31. > :33:34.extra free childcare. Some nurseries have told us on breakfast they are

:33:35. > :33:39.really worried about this and do not think they can afford it and some

:33:40. > :33:45.may have to close as a result. What would you say to reassure them and

:33:46. > :33:51.parents? We have delivered 15,000 places during the pilot period in

:33:52. > :33:55.York and some of the nurseries that had reservations have signed up and

:33:56. > :34:01.100% of the nurseries and other providers are providing the 30 hours

:34:02. > :34:06.and research today indicates 80% of the nurseries providing the 15 hours

:34:07. > :34:11.already are in tending to provide the additional 15 hours so that is

:34:12. > :34:16.great news. It is worth ?5,000 per child so it is great news for people

:34:17. > :34:26.in work and who want to get into work. For whom childcare costs are

:34:27. > :34:29.preventing them getting into work they can get a job. Improving

:34:30. > :34:34.lifework balance. Leslie has said her nursery has had to budget. Some

:34:35. > :34:39.nurseries have said they will have to charge more for the extra hours

:34:40. > :34:45.on top of the 30 of four meals or trips to make up the balance. That

:34:46. > :34:49.does not sound like free childcare. It is open to nurseries to charge

:34:50. > :34:54.for extras such as lunch or additional hours or trips or music

:34:55. > :34:58.lessons but that cannot be a prerequisite to accessing the 30

:34:59. > :35:03.hours. We have delivered 15,000 places across the country during the

:35:04. > :35:10.pilot and 200,000 be both have signed up online to get their code

:35:11. > :35:14.to access be 30 hours. I am optimistic we can deliver and we

:35:15. > :35:17.believe the funding is adequate. There is ?1 billion going into this

:35:18. > :35:22.which will ensure this can be delivered successfully. You are

:35:23. > :35:26.confident on those figures? Some have suggested it is going to

:35:27. > :35:31.provide more and you will have to provide care for more children than

:35:32. > :35:37.was originally axed Dom act estimated. Some of the big providers

:35:38. > :35:42.have 267 nurseries around the country and are signed up and

:35:43. > :35:46.nurseries like this are not only delivering but expanding to deliver

:35:47. > :35:50.more places. We are hearing this is a great opportunity for nurseries

:35:51. > :35:54.and other providers to step up to the mark. Whenever we talk about

:35:55. > :36:00.childcare we always get people messaging and who do not have kids

:36:01. > :36:04.or who paid for their kids starve childcare and ask why the state

:36:05. > :36:08.should be throwing billions at this and if you cannot afford to have

:36:09. > :36:14.kids you should not have kids. What would use it to them? They are

:36:15. > :36:18.experiences that 25% of mothers are going to take additional hours at

:36:19. > :36:22.work and that means they will be appearing more tax so there is

:36:23. > :36:27.payback for everybody in getting the book back into work. A lot of people

:36:28. > :36:32.cannot work because of the cost of childcare. We are helping the Bulger

:36:33. > :36:37.back to work and to pay tax. In some cases getting the family of benefits

:36:38. > :36:47.which is a benefit to the taxpayer. Thank you.

:36:48. > :36:57.Coming up here on Breakfast this morning:

:36:58. > :37:00.Everyone in this room better have their eyes glued to mind for this

:37:01. > :37:04.whole conversation. In around ten minutes,

:37:05. > :37:06.we'll meet two of the people tasked with Educating Greater Manchester

:37:07. > :37:08.and turning around a school once deemed to be

:37:09. > :37:13.the worst in the country. I have just seen him. He is giving

:37:14. > :37:18.me the eye just now! More than 12 billion miles

:37:19. > :37:21.away, a tiny spaceship is leaving our solar system

:37:22. > :37:23.and entering deep space. Before 9am, we'll hear

:37:24. > :37:25.about Voyager's incredible search for intelligent life far

:37:26. > :37:28.beyond this planet. We'll also meet the Michelin-starred

:37:29. > :37:32.chef and judge of the BBC's new cookery programme,

:37:33. > :37:34.Giorgio Locatelli, to find out how he's found swapping

:37:35. > :37:58.the kitchen for cameras. You better have your eyes on me.

:37:59. > :38:03.Lots of money has already been spent. More money due to be spent

:38:04. > :38:09.today. It is transfer deadline day. The fans are starting to get

:38:10. > :38:10.involved with players being spotted all over the place. We are getting

:38:11. > :38:15.pictures. We're into the final day of a record

:38:16. > :38:18.breaking football transfer window. Premier League clubs have spent

:38:19. > :38:21.comfortably more than a billion pounds so far and we expect millions

:38:22. > :38:23.more to be splurged today. The Algerian FA may have given

:38:24. > :38:26.something away when they tweeted they'd released Riyad Mahrez

:38:27. > :38:28.from international duty Leicester have turned down bids

:38:29. > :38:31.from Italian club Roma And one fan said they spotted

:38:32. > :38:35.the midfielder at Paris airport And one fan said they spotted

:38:36. > :38:45.the midfielder at Paris airport He could have been flying through

:38:46. > :38:54.Paris to come back to the UK, flying into London. Maybe he is going on

:38:55. > :38:57.holiday. Maybe it was an old picture.

:38:58. > :38:58.Arsenal are still hoping to keep Alexis Sanchez.

:38:59. > :39:00.They've rejected a ?50 million bid from Manchester City.

:39:01. > :39:03.He scored 24 league goals last season but only has a year

:39:04. > :39:13.It has been going on all the way through the transfer window. It

:39:14. > :39:18.looks as if he might not want to stay at Arsenal and that is going to

:39:19. > :39:23.go to the wire. You have this three month time finishing later tonight.

:39:24. > :39:26.And you can follow all the deals on the BBC Sport website

:39:27. > :39:29.which will have a live page with updates until the window closes

:39:30. > :39:39.Scotland get another hour till midnight.

:39:40. > :39:46.5live have a special programme from 7pm and there's

:39:47. > :39:48.a special Football Focus at 10:45pm on BBC One.

:39:49. > :39:51.More problems for the US Open with another top player,

:39:52. > :39:54.One Brit left, though, Kyle Edmund's into the third round,

:39:55. > :39:58.Kyrgios hurt his shoulder losing to John Millman.

:39:59. > :40:01.It didn't seem to hamper him, though, when he smashed his racket

:40:02. > :40:03.beyond repair after losing the third set.

:40:04. > :40:05.The Aussie's first round exit another blow for the tournament,

:40:06. > :40:07.which had already lost Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic

:40:08. > :40:14.The leaders we have today in the sport are very open to those

:40:15. > :40:20.conversations and are concerned about the health of the players but

:40:21. > :40:24.also this excess of tennis so as we have these stakeholder meetings

:40:25. > :40:30.together I know this is on the docket to be discussed and I am sure

:40:31. > :40:34.we will have robust conversations. The idea of the player role in this

:40:35. > :40:37.and the governing bodies and stakeholders.

:40:38. > :40:39.Caroline Wozniacki is out but another former world

:40:40. > :40:42.number one Maria Sharapova is through to the third round.

:40:43. > :40:44.The Russian, playing her first Grand Slam since a 15-month doping

:40:45. > :40:47.ban, came from a set down to beat Timea Babos.

:40:48. > :40:56.There is also the realistic understanding that, OK,

:40:57. > :40:58.I haven't been in this situation for a while,

:40:59. > :41:01.Of course, managing expectations is part of it and learning

:41:02. > :41:09.during the match is something that I haven't done.

:41:10. > :41:16.One of the problems for the tennis players suggested by Judy Murray is

:41:17. > :41:21.that they are playing too much. She was asked on Twitter yesterday if

:41:22. > :41:34.she thought the players were playing too much and she said yes. Tired and

:41:35. > :41:44.emotional. That sounds dodgy! Were you good at school? I was too good.

:41:45. > :41:52.I did not rebel until I left. You did not need a head teacher to bring

:41:53. > :41:54.you into line? No. I was so good. If you were Sally's head teacher, get

:41:55. > :41:56.in touch! It takes a special sort of head

:41:57. > :41:59.teacher to turn around the worst school in the country

:42:00. > :42:02.but Harrop Fold in Salford has been Drew Povey has transformed

:42:03. > :42:06.the school in 12 years, impressing Ofsted inspectors,

:42:07. > :42:07.parents and pupils alike. So it's no wonder the school caught

:42:08. > :42:10.the attention of Channel Four producers and it's the location

:42:11. > :42:12.for the new series We can have a look at Drew's

:42:13. > :42:16.discipline technique in action, as we see him telling off a group

:42:17. > :42:39.of his pupils for writing some There has been a van in the

:42:40. > :42:52.playground. It is amusing but I have to be angry and compose myself.

:42:53. > :43:07.Shall we come in? No. -- yes. None of you will sit down. Make sure you

:43:08. > :43:11.can hear me. Everyone in this room better have their eyes glued to

:43:12. > :43:20.Maine for this whole conversation. If your eyes, off of mine you are in

:43:21. > :43:24.big trouble. While we might have done something like that at school

:43:25. > :43:31.and I might have been partial to drawing something like that myself

:43:32. > :43:37.in those circumstances... I was a lad myself, believe it or not... We

:43:38. > :43:40.have to look at the situation we are dealing with which is the reputation

:43:41. > :43:44.of the school, which makes me cross quickly.

:43:45. > :43:49.Do you have any idea what those people will be thinking of this

:43:50. > :43:59.school and you and you and you and you? Sit up straight. Look ahead. Do

:44:00. > :43:59.not take your eyes off of the camera.

:44:00. > :44:02.Head teacher Drew Povey and Head of Year Seven Julie

:44:03. > :44:12.We are terrified to meet you. Even you look scared to see yourself on

:44:13. > :44:20.camera. What would be your main lesson in instilling discipline?

:44:21. > :44:23.Eyes on me. It is about setting boundaries with young people, making

:44:24. > :44:29.sure they know what is right and wrong. Also it is about making sure

:44:30. > :44:34.you can build a relationship with young people. If you want to have

:44:35. > :44:37.real influence you have to have a relationship with you just say that

:44:38. > :44:44.is what you have to do that is not the way to do it. Are they scared of

:44:45. > :44:48.you? I get asked if it is fear or respect. You would have to ask the

:44:49. > :44:54.kids but you need both. Tell us about your role. I am the year

:44:55. > :45:00.leader for year seven but I am part of a team that works together and I

:45:01. > :45:07.induct children into the school from primary and settle the men. Settling

:45:08. > :45:17.the men, that is quite key -- settling them in. Integration

:45:18. > :45:20.issues, being part of the School or not understanding the ways of the

:45:21. > :45:26.school without feeling isolated if you're different. Definitely.

:45:27. > :45:35.Children come in with different issues. Most settle but others need

:45:36. > :45:40.more support. When the school was approached, as someone who is not

:45:41. > :45:47.the oversea, who is part of the team, one of the difficulties is it

:45:48. > :45:51.highlights bad behaviour or children perceived as bad, not just knotty,

:45:52. > :46:02.and the negative impact it will have on them. How concerned were you and

:46:03. > :46:06.what reassurance is where you given? I was not that concerned, a school

:46:07. > :46:11.is a school, we are used to dealing with behaviour and whatever presents

:46:12. > :46:17.itself, we are quite proactive and can be reactive if we need to be, I

:46:18. > :46:19.did not truly have any concerns. We have a clip about a particularly

:46:20. > :46:21.sensitive story. In this clip we can see Rani,

:46:22. > :46:25.a boy from Syria who struggles at school to start with,

:46:26. > :46:35.building a friendship Are you all right there are large?

:46:36. > :46:36.You have two match up the same colour, which does not match any

:46:37. > :47:14.colour? This one! Well done! Yes! Great smiles. We were talking about

:47:15. > :47:18.letting the cameras in and seeing bad behaviour but you must have been

:47:19. > :47:22.conscious about the vulnerability of some pupils because it's a difficult

:47:23. > :47:27.time. How do you approach that when you are trying to persuade parents,

:47:28. > :47:33.teachers, staff that you are inviting in Channel 4 and they can

:47:34. > :47:36.film everything? It's not about convincing people, it's about giving

:47:37. > :47:44.them information, we had a vote with the students and staff and asked. It

:47:45. > :47:49.was a collective decision. I cannot go and see this is what I think we

:47:50. > :47:51.should do, I think it's about presenting people with information

:47:52. > :47:55.which it worked for us. There are risks that go with it but we are

:47:56. > :48:01.proud of what we have achieved. It's a great place, you can see people

:48:02. > :48:05.from those kids, fantastic staff and we thought why not put ourselves out

:48:06. > :48:09.there and showcase the great things which happen. Staff have been key to

:48:10. > :48:13.your success in leading a team to turn around one of the worst schools

:48:14. > :48:23.in the country and you have done that stuff with a couple of brothers

:48:24. > :48:29.in the mix as well, how has that gone? I am sure the kids have got

:48:30. > :48:34.many names for us, I would be the head, my older brother was there

:48:35. > :48:41.first, he is the music teacher and my younger other is known for his

:48:42. > :48:52.behaviour. And what are they called behind their backs? Just that. It

:48:53. > :48:57.sounds like working for the Mafia. I think the children like the

:48:58. > :49:04.familiarity, they get attached to people. But it's a lovely

:49:05. > :49:11.environment to work. It must be hard to get used to the cameras and

:49:12. > :49:17.stuff, following everything you do, is what we see on TV really what

:49:18. > :49:21.it's like? Yeah, from the outset you have to decide you are ignoring them

:49:22. > :49:25.straightaway to be yourself. From the outset you have to forget they

:49:26. > :49:33.are there. Looking forward to the start of term? Can not wait. Yeah.

:49:34. > :49:39.You looked a bit hesitant. I have had a busy six weeks. This is the

:49:40. > :49:45.busy time of year for you. Thank you so much for joining us. Still giving

:49:46. > :49:50.us the eye. Thank you and good luck, enjoy the show.

:49:51. > :49:52.And you can see Educating Greater Manchester tonight

:49:53. > :50:05.Who else gives a really good eye is Carol, do not mess with her.

:50:06. > :50:10.Sunshine and showers, some of which will be heavy and thundery, we have

:50:11. > :50:15.already seen some hailstones this morning, quite a few showers across

:50:16. > :50:19.western and southern areas including the Channel Islands. The heaviest

:50:20. > :50:24.have been across parts of Lancashire and they have been really coming

:50:25. > :50:28.down, intense clusters of thunderstorms. The other place we

:50:29. > :50:31.have seen heavy and thundery downpours is across north west Wales

:50:32. > :50:34.so if you are travelling this morning bear that in mind, could be

:50:35. > :50:39.issues with surface water flooding. For many it's a chilly start,

:50:40. > :50:44.temperatures picking up nicely in the sunshine, dry weather, but the

:50:45. > :50:48.showers do develop quite widely as we go through the course of the day,

:50:49. > :50:52.some will be heavy, thundery with some hailstones. There will be

:50:53. > :50:56.sunshine in Northern Ireland and Scotland, if you are caught in a

:50:57. > :51:00.heavy shower the Tim Butcher will drop a couple of degrees but in the

:51:01. > :51:04.sunshine it will feel pleasant enough. The same across the North of

:51:05. > :51:08.England, a mixture of bright spells sunshine and showers, some heavy and

:51:09. > :51:13.thundery, the same can be said for the Midlands and East Anglia and

:51:14. > :51:16.across the southern counties. But they are showers. Some will miss

:51:17. > :51:19.them all together and have a dry day with plenty of sunshine. In the

:51:20. > :51:25.south-east it will be much warmer than yesterday. For Wales looking at

:51:26. > :51:28.a mixture of bright spells, sunshine and showers and the potential for

:51:29. > :51:32.some of the showers to be heavy as they have been in some parts already

:51:33. > :51:35.this morning. Through this evening and overnight the showers will

:51:36. > :51:40.slowly fade but we hang onto some clusters. Under clearing skies it

:51:41. > :51:43.will be a cool night, these temperatures indicative of towns and

:51:44. > :51:52.cities in the countryside they will be even lower, in some parts of the

:51:53. > :51:57.temperature lower for grass frost. Dry day tomorrow with lots of

:51:58. > :52:01.sunshine, however showers will be with us at times, extending from

:52:02. > :52:05.South East Scotland to south-east England but not all of us will see

:52:06. > :52:11.them and if you catch one in the West depending on your point of view

:52:12. > :52:15.you will be unlucky. Temperatures 14-21. This high pressure is still

:52:16. > :52:19.with us Friday into Saturday with another cool night with frost but

:52:20. > :52:22.then we have this set of fronts coming from the Atlantic bringing

:52:23. > :52:27.thicker cloud, wet and windy weather to that will not happen until later

:52:28. > :52:30.on Saturday. After the chilly start for most of the UK it will be dry

:52:31. > :52:37.and sunny and it will quite pleasant. Temperatures roughly where

:52:38. > :52:41.they should be. Saturday will be the 2nd of September. One to showers

:52:42. > :52:46.getting across the south-east, the exception rather than the rule, the

:52:47. > :52:50.cloud will thicken and the arrival of some rain and during Sunday it

:52:51. > :52:52.will move east so the further east you are the drier and brighter it's

:52:53. > :53:02.likely to be. Cannot believe you're talking about

:53:03. > :53:08.frost in some places. It is cold enough but it will be

:53:09. > :53:14.isolated, not everywhere. Heating on! Socks on!

:53:15. > :53:17.Prince William and Prince Harry say they want their mother to be

:53:18. > :53:20.remembered for the positive impact she had around the world and the way

:53:21. > :53:24.20 years on from the her death, we've been speaking to people

:53:25. > :53:33.who have special memories of meeting Diana, Princess of Wales.

:53:34. > :53:38.The young lady that I met that was a cracking young lady,

:53:39. > :53:44.and full of life, full of confidence.

:53:45. > :53:47.She was a breath of fresh air for the monarchy -

:53:48. > :53:51.a stuffy monarchy that needed a bit of fresh air.

:53:52. > :53:57.My name is John Walsh, and I met Princess Diana in 1991.

:53:58. > :54:02.She was patron of the Turning Point charity dinner.

:54:03. > :54:07.I picked up the menu for the evening, and I wrote on it,

:54:08. > :54:10."Next to my Mrs, you're the best-looking woman in the room,

:54:11. > :54:23.As I arrived there, she rather cheekily said,

:54:24. > :54:25."Who's this bird that's better looking than me?"

:54:26. > :54:30.But then she said, "How would you like me?"

:54:31. > :54:33."If you don't mind, I would like would like a photo

:54:34. > :54:44.And I said, "Well, everybody has a photograph of you smiling,"

:54:45. > :54:48.and at that point, she grinned, and that is one that I shot.

:54:49. > :55:02.I was the bodyguard to the late Diana, Princess of Wales,

:55:03. > :55:07.People talk about, you know, "Did Diana change things?"

:55:08. > :55:18.I think the sort of beginning of that, there was her leap

:55:19. > :55:21.into trying to find a cure for AIDS at that point.

:55:22. > :55:23.I remember Diana meeting the Queen, here, in the mid-80s,

:55:24. > :55:26.and the Queen saying, "What are you going to do now?"

:55:27. > :55:29.And she said, "I want to get involved in the AIDS project -

:55:30. > :55:31.I think that's something worth getting involved with."

:55:32. > :55:34.And here we are, in the 21st century, and her son,

:55:35. > :55:36.Harry, openly involved in the AIDS issue, with all the support

:55:37. > :55:50.My name is Martin Neary, and I directed the music

:55:51. > :55:55.Candle In The Wind, in its original version,

:55:56. > :56:03.And so in conversations with Elton, I said to him, "This could work,

:56:04. > :56:15.And within five hours, he had come back with Goodbye England's Rose.

:56:16. > :56:26.# Your candle's burned out long before your legend ever will.

:56:27. > :56:28.She had a touch with people which just crossed all

:56:29. > :56:44.And that is very telling, and it was worldwide.

:56:45. > :56:46.40 years ago, Nasa launched what would become one of its most

:56:47. > :56:53.Two Voyager spacecraft were sent off to do what had

:56:54. > :56:55.never been done before - map the solar system

:56:56. > :57:03.and revolutionise our understanding of space.

:57:04. > :57:13.Three, two, one, we have ignition and we have liftoff. We have

:57:14. > :57:41.liftoff. Hello from the children of planet

:57:42. > :57:59.Earth. To mark the fortieth

:58:00. > :58:01.year of the mission, Emer Reynolds has made a film

:58:02. > :58:13.about the Voyager space craft Is fascinating, good morning. How do

:58:14. > :58:19.you get involved in making a film like this because the access to

:58:20. > :58:25.footage you must need, it needs to be complete doesn't it, how did you

:58:26. > :58:29.get access? We had to get all the approvals from Nasa but they were on

:58:30. > :58:33.board with the film they wanted to make from the start, it's such an

:58:34. > :58:37.amazing adventure story and there had never been anything about it on

:58:38. > :58:43.the big screen before. There have been TV documentaries but we wanted

:58:44. > :58:47.to give it the epic cinema visual story treatment it deserved. We

:58:48. > :58:50.pushed with that and wanted to talk to the scientists and engineers who

:58:51. > :58:54.are at the heart of it and tell the story from their perspective. Nasa

:58:55. > :59:01.were excited by that story and we got all the approvals to get to the

:59:02. > :59:05.archives and talk to the people. This is something you are passionate

:59:06. > :59:10.about doing, what was it about the story which captivated you? I have

:59:11. > :59:15.been a bit of a space geeks since I was a child, wanted to be an

:59:16. > :59:21.astronaut. There was a BBC programmes in the 80s, this guy at

:59:22. > :59:28.night, a programme about Voyager to getting to Uranus, I remember being

:59:29. > :59:33.blown away by the amazing images of this planet which we have not seen

:59:34. > :59:39.close before. Myself and my producer were obsessed with Voyager and space

:59:40. > :59:46.and when Voyager one entered interstellar space in 2013 it was

:59:47. > :59:47.back to it again after this 40 year journey, it was the perfect moment

:59:48. > :00:08.to tell the story. Voyager two took over from Voyager

:00:09. > :00:13.one. Yes, it took over. It will keep going, it will not come back,

:00:14. > :00:20.because it will take part of us, or a snippet, into space, out into the

:00:21. > :00:28.universe. It centres around a golden record which is going to be

:00:29. > :00:33.explained in this clip. All of planetary exploration to me is a

:00:34. > :00:38.story about longing. The longing to understand the significance of

:00:39. > :00:49.existence. To say to the universe we are here, no others. Where are you?

:00:50. > :00:55.The people who did the science part of Voyager are jealous and mad

:00:56. > :01:02.because it gets wonderful. The main attention goes to the golden record.

:01:03. > :01:06.Any effort to contact extraterrestrial intelligent life is

:01:07. > :01:11.more fascinating than knowing the chemical make-up of a mineral on

:01:12. > :01:17.Mars or something. Let us give it some more attention. This is a

:01:18. > :01:22.golden record which contains all of these sounds and messages and the

:01:23. > :01:27.idea is it would be played by a something, somebody, when they find

:01:28. > :01:32.it out there but there is no method of playing it. They included a

:01:33. > :01:36.cartridge in what they sent and instructions as to how they might

:01:37. > :01:39.play it the way they played correctly it would yield a certain

:01:40. > :01:43.image and they would know what it was standing at the same speed. It

:01:44. > :01:49.was kind of mad because they could not build a turntable ourselves. If

:01:50. > :01:56.I found a vinyl I do not think I would be able to play at! Vinyl is

:01:57. > :02:03.coming back. The difficulty in choosing what should be on the

:02:04. > :02:07.record. Something like 50 greetings in 50 languages. In order to get a

:02:08. > :02:17.snippet of what we are to understand as there was one these of music. 27

:02:18. > :02:38.pieces. One pop song. Which was? Johnny be good. Noel Elvis, no Bob

:02:39. > :02:42.Dylan, now David Bowie. Do you think what is on the record is still

:02:43. > :02:47.representative of what we are as humans on planet earth? It is a

:02:48. > :02:53.pretty good snapshot. They only had 90 minutes to fill and the principle

:02:54. > :03:02.was not just to show American or contemporary music though over 50%

:03:03. > :03:07.is ethnic recordings, panpipes, Japanese, they had a small amount of

:03:08. > :03:12.space to fill, Mozart, Beethoven, there were arguments as to what to

:03:13. > :03:18.do, we would all argue all night as to what they should put on but it is

:03:19. > :03:28.a pretty good snapshot. Where is it? Over 12 billion miles away for four

:03:29. > :03:36.Voyager one and two is 11 billion miles away. Different directions.

:03:37. > :03:42.When did we lose signal? We are still getting odd bits of data. They

:03:43. > :03:46.send back signals every day and it takes over 18 hours from Voyager one

:03:47. > :03:51.to reach us. It is very far away and the signal is very weak but we will

:03:52. > :04:03.communicate hopefully for another 510 years before they lose -- five

:04:04. > :04:08.or ten. These spacecraft will in all likelihood outlives humanity.

:04:09. > :04:12.Circling the galaxy for millions or billions of years containing this

:04:13. > :04:18.record of existence, it is poignant and dramatic, the idea that when we

:04:19. > :04:20.are long gone perhaps this marker of our existence will be out there. A

:04:21. > :04:24.spectacular story. Emer's film is called The Farthest

:04:25. > :04:27.and is in cinemas from tomorrow. In a moment, we'll speak

:04:28. > :04:30.to the Michelin-starred chef who's also a judge on the BBC's

:04:31. > :04:32.new prime-time cookery show. But first a last, brief

:04:33. > :06:06.look at the headlines Bake Off had the recipe for success

:06:07. > :06:24.and it seems the BBC's new cookery "The Big Family Cooking Showdown"

:06:25. > :06:31.is serving up a feast of food Whipping the contestants into shape

:06:32. > :06:39.is Michelin-starred chef, Giorgio Locatelli, who is one

:06:40. > :06:44.of the judges on the show. We'll speak to him in a moment,

:06:45. > :06:56.but let's first see a clip. The judges have asked you for a

:06:57. > :07:11.family favourite, main course and deserved. You have 90 minutes. Are

:07:12. > :07:20.you ready? Yes. Peel potatoes. Is there a specific way to peel these?

:07:21. > :07:28.No. Sam and earlier are in charge of the main course, pan-fried salmon

:07:29. > :07:34.with asparagus. You are in the way. This is a very classic dish. The

:07:35. > :07:40.cooking of the salmon is very important, not to overcook it. It

:07:41. > :07:48.should have the flakes pushing under the fog. She expects them to be

:07:49. > :07:54.perfect. She has very high standards. If the skin is on a

:07:55. > :08:08.expected to be crispy or do not bother. No pressure. Are you good or

:08:09. > :08:15.bad in this? I guess I am the good one. Other cookery programmes use

:08:16. > :08:20.the ready prepared big banks and lots of space. These are families

:08:21. > :08:26.and you are examining how they get on and how good the food is. How

:08:27. > :08:30.they interact is quite important because family food must be a labour

:08:31. > :08:37.of joy, of love. This is a very important thing, how people work. As

:08:38. > :08:44.you watch them going through each of the steps you can see who is the

:08:45. > :08:51.chef in the family and there will be one handling the whole thing and who

:08:52. > :08:57.is slaughtering in. Great television as well because you have the family

:08:58. > :09:01.dynamic, not just individuals. Yes. Some of the stuff gets cut off but

:09:02. > :09:07.there is some little bits that are fantastic. How important is home

:09:08. > :09:11.cooking to you? You have a cookery book about home cooking but your

:09:12. > :09:22.home cooking is going to be slightly different to the average family.

:09:23. > :09:30.Yes. It is a bit different because what is happening in the restaurant

:09:31. > :09:36.I choose check-in over six months. I take one from the restaurant.

:09:37. > :09:42.Everything we cook at home is a reflection of what is going on in

:09:43. > :09:47.the restaurant but we also go on holiday and places like that and we

:09:48. > :09:53.have small kids. My daughter has a lot of allergies. These are things

:09:54. > :09:59.that made up this book of recipes. When you go on holiday you arrive

:10:00. > :10:02.and there is nothing and you have to rely on the fresh ingredients you

:10:03. > :10:09.can get. This is a very important thing for me. Do you think we are

:10:10. > :10:12.getting better in the UK at sourcing natural ingredients or local

:10:13. > :10:17.ingredients and thinking more about where food comes from? Generally we

:10:18. > :10:23.understand more about ingredients and more people want to understand

:10:24. > :10:31.where ingredients come from. What is interesting in England is what we

:10:32. > :10:36.are cooking. That is what comes from the programme. It would be

:10:37. > :10:44.impossible in Italy or France or Germany to have the same family

:10:45. > :10:49.cooking a British male, an Italian one or a Taiwan. This was a

:10:50. > :10:53.revelation to me of this programme, how the British population has

:10:54. > :10:55.picked up all of this influence from other can be seen is and put them to

:10:56. > :10:57.good use. We've got a preview clip

:10:58. > :10:59.here of tonight's episode. Are we ready to add

:11:00. > :11:01.the aubergine yet? The other team are using

:11:02. > :11:04.chipotle chillies. Don't worry about what

:11:05. > :11:08.the other team are doing. Can you fill that

:11:09. > :11:18.with hot water, please? A family in the kitchen cooking

:11:19. > :11:31.together, the one thing, There seems to be a little bit

:11:32. > :11:36.of conflict going on and that's not a good thing because the conflict

:11:37. > :12:04.overtakes the process. Sorry, mum, how many times did you

:12:05. > :12:08.hear that during the filming? The funny thing was that was not always

:12:09. > :12:15.the mother, sometimes that was the daughter of one of the boys. It is

:12:16. > :12:22.down to how the family works. Cooking reveals that. That was in

:12:23. > :12:28.the studio but you film at home as well. I guess you wanted to witness

:12:29. > :12:36.the different dynamics. I never get invited for dinner anywhere! Nobody

:12:37. > :12:41.invites you! They are scared. I guess. Nobody wants to invite a chef

:12:42. > :12:48.for dinner. If you were invited what would Julie to be fed? As long as

:12:49. > :12:56.you are taking care of it I would be the nicest guest and eat whatever

:12:57. > :13:03.you give me. Really? Of course. If somebody takes the time to cook for

:13:04. > :13:11.you. Who cooks at home? It depends who is at home. It is only me and my

:13:12. > :13:24.wife, the kids are grown up. Everybody has to take care. A team

:13:25. > :13:26.effort. Now snapping. Yes. Me dirtying the pan. She says to me, I

:13:27. > :13:31.am not your sous chef! The Big Family Cooking Showdown

:13:32. > :13:33.continues on BBC Two tonight at 8pm. Giorgio's book is

:13:34. > :13:37.called Made at Home. Long, sunny days

:13:38. > :13:44.when our countryside It's the season that

:13:45. > :13:49.brings out the child in us all.
